Here you go Mark – this is where Bar Beach Swimmer lives, from above. The beach is Bar Beach, the city is Ncl and the updrafts are perfect. 😀

It’s a nice thing to go to a cafe on those beaches, have lunch, and watch the gliders in action.
No glider action over the Cafe, I am on the NW shore of Lake Mac, the thermals and the terrain aren’t conducive sadly,
and that’s arguable
BoN, I was there today! Sea temp perfect, waves the same.
Oh, they also pointed out Quisling’s house. Very nice. Great view of the fjord.
I was far more impressed with a BA.

RIP Tails’ brain.
Yeah, dunno.
Whatever it was it was an affectation which was hiding something more sinister.

Toad, er, ops, yes that should be “kick arse and take names”. Dunno where that came from. Something Freudian might be arising inside my id though, you never know.
@ Matrix
as is mentioning cinematography.
Only did it because I had to Mark. A “wet winch” had to be done periodically in my time in the Andrew. As did NBCD courses – Nuclear, Biological, Chemical and Damage training. Great fun, but not to be done in winter if at all possible.
Saaay what!?

My understanding is that they said nothing, so he decided to take the initiative.

@ Bruce
I am getting itchy feet … or tyres to be more pragmatic. Tempted to go up North in WA but too much strife and too many coons. Coral Bay ? Yeah mebbe … ?
“Bar Beach” Never heard it it but perhaps I should inform myself?
I loved the East Coast.
Well, here’s my day’s tally: one pile-on starting, and I hope finishing, on page 5 of the Cat, that’s the negative. The positive is that Hairy and I went to a special lighting sale this arvo and purchased an Italian Murano glass chandelier for over our dining table. We’d decided the plain white glass pendant currently there was very boring. I also fell in love with an elaborate and very colourful bohemian glass chandelier with Swarovski and Murano features, rather Art Nouveau. It’s a work of art in itself, I was saying breathlessly. Get that too, says Hairy. We’ll decide what goes where later. So we got it. You only live once.
A little retail therapy never goes astray. We had lunch out too.
Thank you for listening, Cats. You know you can’t keep me down. 🙂
The Viet Minh, through the Viet Cong and NVA (as well as political commisars) had an implicit goal to wipe out 1.5 million Vietnamese before and after unification purely on the basis of the victims being landlords.

Thats just the sort of thing Hitler would say.
Also I was today years old when I found out there are turtles living in Wiluna.

Talking to another bloke and he has counted over 100 there, then after a big rain the place is empty as they take off in the wet.
Despite the events of 7 October 2023, when almost 1500 Jews were raped, slaughtered, butchered, defiled, kidnapped into Gaza, on the Sabbath (it was also Simchas Torah), in mass murder not seen since the Holocaust.
Despite what I witnessed on 9 October 2023 at Town Hall Sydney, when I saw children wearing mock suicide vests at a protest where Muslims and leftists came out to protest Israel, despite the bodies scattered across southern Israel still being warm.
Despite being told that Monday night 9 October 2023 by NSW Police for Sydney Jews to steer clear of the Sydney CBD, therefore making it Judenfrei.
Despite seeing the footage of what ensued that night when NSW Police personally escorted Muslims and leftists down to the Sydney Opera House, and then stood and watched those ‘protesters” screech out “kill the Jews” and “gas the Jews”.
Despite seeing, week after week, massive protests on the streets of Sydney, Melbourne, London, NYC, LA, San Francisco, protests where leftist and Muslim ‘protesters’ screech out death to Jews, shout the genocidal cry that is “from the river to the sea”, carry placards with utterly offensive and obscene comparisons, such as claiming that Gaza is like Auschwitz.
Despite watching this federal government speak with forked tongues when it comes to condemning Jew hatred, yet being the gaslighting weasels they are, insisting that we also have to be mindful of “Islamophobia”.
Despite watching what happened last Friday night on the holy Sabbath, when well over hundred Muslims and leftists went to a Jewish suburb in Melbourne, a suburb I know well, and stood outside a synagogue intimidating Jewish residents and screeching Jew hatred.
Despite seeing the scenes of those Muslim ISIS loving bikies, led by a former terrorist, with yet another NSW police escort, make their way from Lidcombe to Coogee, to intimidate the Jews of the eastern suburbs.
Despite on Sunday afternoon coming face to face with the Palestinian protesters in Sydney’s CBD, and I can assure everyone, it was not a pretty spectacle.
Despite all of the above, despite the ongoing intimidation, despite the endless gaslighting, despite the major threats against my community (and I know this for a fact), despite the astronomical Jew hatred, at levels not seen since the 1930s and 1940s, despite all of this………………I’ve got a grip, I still get up every day, I still go to work, I cook, I bake, I hug my sister’s dogs, I care for my mother, I speak to friends, I laugh, in fact after the rally on Sunday for the hostages, a group of us went and had coffee and we laughed and laughed and laughed.
I’ll just say this, nobody knows what it is like, to know you have to be Jewish. You can sympathise, you can feel feel empathy and we are grateful to those of you who do, but you have no idea of how we Jews feel, of the fear we Jews feel because it is in our DNA. Two thousand years of persecution, pogroms, expulsions, slaughter, forced conversions and so on was bottled up in a genie bottle, but the events of 7 October 2023 has opened that bottle and the genie of Jew hatred is well and truly out.
Thanks Lizzie. I’ll also reiterate my comment from early this morning, which is what elicited the response from Johanna, a response that so here many seem to approve of. It was about the UK, and I’d written that it’s likely finished, I think the weekly protests on the streets of the UK’s major cities attest to the fact that the UK has serious problems with Islam. I stand by that comment from this morning.
I miss the old days of pretending ‘progressives’ are the only ones full of fuax outrage.
Good times.
I knew you’d say that
… because that’s exactly what Hitler would say if he was trying out-Hilter and a faux-Hitler wannabe
Plus Nobbys it’s main surfing beach in Ncl.
Newcastle is funny. I’ve lived and worked here like thirty years and getting anyone to transfer to Ncl for work is like arm twisting with a big monkey wrench. Yet every time they grit their teeth and actually move to Ncl they love it and retire here. It’s weird.
Lizzie, looking forward to catching up on Saturday.

How dare you?!

They are turtles of peace
Mark – My front lawn isn’t big enough for a RV, and your conveyance would be rapidly covered by guano and regurgitated fig seeds. Like my aircraft carrier. I need to wash it: it’s looking pretty grotty right now.
By the way, a young Jewish woman was eight month’s pregnant when she kidnapped into Gaza by Hamas. She’s likely given birth by now, if she’s alive……..if she’s alive.
Are moles links ok? To many have been cute owls.

‘Britain is the canary in the coal mine’: Darren Grimes warns of impact of political marches
I imagine many of our Jewish friends are in something akin to a state of grief.
..
I saw on Sky last night, during the Caulfield abomination, a presumably pro- palli chap cross the road belligerently towards an older Jewish gentleman.
It may have been the camera angle, but it seemed to me the pro- palli chap lost a lot of interest and enthusiasm and staggered off in a semi daze after receiving what looked a lot like a right cross.
Beautiful words Cassie @ 08:06PM.
Keep on punching!
Oh, right.
So we must refrain from giving it to neo-Nazi fan-bois because … in absentia.
Give it a break, dickhead.
He was a complete f-ckwit, cheering on Anders Brievik’s mass murder of kids at a youth festival based on their political beliefs.
Not so far removed from the dogs who turned up to slaughter people at the music festival in Israel, hey?
Mark – the currawongs eat the figs from my neighbour’s fig tree and upchuck the seeds everywhere, including on my car. It is fun since most of them are tame, so they land in front of me and look slightly crosseyed. I wait. Sure enough after minute or two they chunder a lump of fig seeds, then turn their gaze to me. “Yes, thanks, I’d like some mince now!” Which I hand to them. I have fig seedlings growing all over the place. That’s what my lawnmower is for.
I’m off to feed some brushtails, who are bouncing on my tin roof as I type.
Hamas’s Useful Idiots in the U.S., Europe
The media’s credibility is shot thanks to self-inflicted wounds and Donald Trump
Cassie, Douglas Murray in the interview with Caroline Glick that I linked above has similar feelings of dismay about Britain, and also France and Germany. The discussion between the two about how these events are felt by Jewish people everywhere might also make you feel among friends. They contextualise their discussion by interspersing reference to various writings that they use to make sense of it all. I took a quiet hour with it, and you may enjoy to do that too.
Chin up, love, I’ve been reduced to shakes and tears over far less important things here and you have made a strong and dignified response. You are bearing up well, and as you’ve reminded us, Jews even managed to laugh and crack a joke in the camps. Until starvation and typhus left them too frail and wordless.
I look forward to better days, when Israel does what Douglas Murray suggests at the conclusion to this talk. He sees the next task after winning is for Israel to certain its Chosen People that Israel can defend them for all time; a shepherd to the flock. Douglas also stresses the West must rediscover its Judeo-Christian origins, where Ayaan Hirsi Ali’s recent conversion to Christianity leads the way.
About the same as last years federal election I think.
I wonder if there are a million or more people in this country, so disgusted with what happened during covid that they’ve turned their backs on the entire political system for good?

Thanks Lizzie.
That is a thrashing.
A Wests Tigers magnitude thrashing.

I remember how he compared Rosie, Lizzie and me to those French women who’d collaborated with the Nazis during World War II. Those French women had their heads shaved after the liberation as punishment. Apparently, because we’d had the Covid jab, we’d also “collaborated” and he wrote that we also needed to have our heads shaved as punishment. A real charmer

Am watching it now.
Whoever he/she is they are putting some effort into the role. I guess we might see commentators taking on styles in future with a little AI help e.g. “commenting as Brevik crossed with Corbyn” or “Pol Pot mixed with Boudica”
Jared Kushner amplified a point the All-In podcast that doesn’t get enough coverage.
The concept of East Jerusalem being the capital of a Pali state was some brain fart that only came up during the Clinton administration by one of his advisors.
Not sure if he named who it was.
WTF are you talking about?
He frickin’ worked full-time in construction right through Covid as an “essential wukka”. Something he was happy to brag about whilst others were sitting at home watching their businesses evaporate and trying to home-school their kids.
And, as Bespoke points out, he showed signs of this pre-Covid.
Here’s the thing.
He only lost his job in construction post-Covid and couldn’t get another one.
Let that sink in.
Couldn’t get a job in construction in Melbourne in 2022.
Reading the tea-leaves, he got the arse the very first day his post-Covid protected status disappeared.
His cards were marked.
Why do you reckon that was?
Smoko room neo-Nazi chatter perhaps?
As for being “not old”, if you think he was 18, my mail is you are out by 15-20 years.
BTW, at what age do we stop excusing someone as “just being Hitler youth” and hold them responsible for being fully fledged SS?
listen mate, you never even met the bloke and here you are taking your idiotic projections to the next level

Come on Leigh. You know that Tailgunner ended up down some dark rabbit holes because Andrews/Sutton and their COVID horseshit. I don’t know him, but I saw it happen inch by inch, day by day.
Where is armadillo?
honestly, to get the best understanding of how things really play out down here on the lower levels you’ll need to talk to Meta-Cat’s chief scientist
Riiight.
Tell me.
Have you ever made a judgement about anyone here without having met them?
Labelled them a “mong” or a “wanker”, for example?
Where is armadillo?
Last seen screaming ” Avenge meeeeeee”! Before sliding under a model T roobar.
How do you apply? The Australia Council have asked me not to contact them again and threatened to call the cops.
Those lower levels give us in the cheep seats a bad name.
Tailgunner?
go on you stupid man …
feck off with your circular-gibber
It was just a lift to the Halls Gap pub.
The reality was that TailGunner thought Brievik “had the right idea” in dealing with young people who didn’t share his political views.
That is, hunting and shooting dead 77 kids at a youth camp.
And this wasn’t just a random late night drunken rant. He repeated it over several weeks in one form or another, often accompanied by increasingly unhinged links.
He isn’t so far removed from those swivel-eyed loons screaming “Gas the Jews” in Sydney a couple of weeks ago.
He owns that.
It is no-one else’s “projection” or “mis-remembering”.
Australia Post really is an oddball group.
1 day to Sydney from Perf.

Hey, I reckon I can get TailGunner onto page 8 from here, suckers.
I liked TailGunner.
He just had stupid ideas about the “JQ”.
If only they could be red pulled about how dumb antisemitism is.
And off to fruit-picking in Mildura after that I think.
I suspect the bravado might have evaporated in the sun in amongst a bunch of Islander pickers, eh, bro?

Kind readers already know the useless nature of university degrees now. But how useless is an honorary degree fer phuck sake?

Back from the goff course. Not Royal Portsea, where Mr Andrews has been embarrassed out of even applying for membership.
Predictably, and in all likelihood due to relevance deprivation over the last week or so, the bored have turned up looking for stoushes.
Just now:
Correct. That is exactly what he did, and deserved every single keystroke of opprobrium he got in return, until he pissed off.
Yes indeedy. The ‘I’m a bonged-up construction bloke hehe, look at the chicks’ was a straight-up slap across the chops to every single other person here who was banned from doing anything, including leaving their house in the Terror. And he laughed at them.
A piece of shit, probably going Radio Rental as well, but in any case looking out for him and him alone.
‘Oh but you never met him’
Seriously. According to the people who post here, those who have met the switch-flicking God Oracle have not walked away with the highest of opinions either.

Jewish Question.
‘Brievik was right’
Is exactly what he said.
Tailgunner claimed the Holocaust was fake. I put him straight on that, but I don’t think he changed his mind.
It’s obvious, when you think about it.
TG was a switch-flicker.
Explains quite a bit.
‘Oh noooo, because you never met him’

youse wooden know
the abyss stares back
and the bullshit begins
Until the first day came post-Covid for construction companies to release anyone who (ahem) “wasn’t best fit for the ongoing needs of the organisation”* and he got rissoled.
Then the laffin’ stopped.
And the Nazism started (or, rather, increased in pitch and volume).
As I say, it speaks volumes that this bloke, allegedly with years of experience, couldn’t get a construction job in Melbourne in 2022.
FMD, an un-trained monkey who could fog up a mirror could get a job as an air-con tech.

You’d think I’d have learned after watching every season of Family Guy.
His hero shows similar traits:-
Mass murderer Anders Breivik, who slaughtered 77 people in Norway in 2011, is again suing his country’s government for human rights violations in a bid to force an end to his isolation in prison.
My grandfather ended up as a HM Land Forces motor pool Sgt after D Day and as he could speak German, got moved out of transport and into intel – he helped officers interrogate war criminals (he was a smart bugger and autodidact, became a pharmacist on the UK soldier scholarship or whatever it was post war). He was a civilian peeler (also got kicked out of an Anglican seminary and recused to marry grandma) pre war so that might have helped. Another horrifying part of his job in the transport pool was arranging for some of the dead to be given proper burials as Monty came into Bergen Belsen etc.
For the Holocaust to be a lie, tens of millions needed to commit to such a lie and all of the pre war and contemporaneous German records had to be faked by the Germans. It’s an insane idea.
If they didn’t commit war crimes and crimes against humanity, why did they rely on the Nuremberg defence?
I’d fly up to gatecrash but, alas, have nasty epidural injection booked for Friday. Next time, maybe.
Thinking of you, Cassie.
Right.
Gotcha.
The question to which we all know the expected answer.
This list of potential Austs of the Year just has to be a pisstake. Satire is not dead.
Unless there is some kind of holographic wizardry or witchcraft going on, I have seen TG and MT in the same room. Twice.
Impossible to mistake one for other.
I was far from alone in pointing out the well established facts of the Holocaust. Tailgunner stopped pushing his argument when he saw the reaction he was getting. That he put it up at all damned him in my eyes.
I think the claim of being sent to the Mildura Fruit Gulag was a bit of a ruse.
I suspect it was a desparate plea for one of the few remaining hand-patters and apologists here to help find a job pulling half decent money for doing un-trained chimp work.
Sweeeet, bro.
They do it because they are rubbing our noses in it.
Betul Tuna has to be some kind of weird in-joke.

As per usual, and for god knows how long; Leigh and KD need to get a room!
Yeah, get a room fellers. Please.
My beautiful chandelier of the Art Nouveau type was only one of two – a seven candle one and a five candle one. The seven candle one, says the owner of this closing down end-of-an-era shop, was Marcia HInes; so many high-end specialty shops in Double Bay and Rose Bay of this type are getting shoved out by ‘progress’. She’s end of an era too. Like me, I guess.
I like to think on it. It is something unique and beautiful. Like buying a piece of jewellery. It made my day, which actually really did need making after page 5 here.
Just sayin’..
Hip Hop is dead.
Now we can get back to music.
Going back now to watch the series on Sky on the Liberals. I thought I’d hate it, but am watching it with Hairy. It’s not too bad and very interesting to relive those moments in time. Everyone looks younger. Golly gosh. Scott Morrison, can’t forgive him for Net Zero, nevertheless comes across as badly done by. The whole Kimbeley Kitchen and Nickerless thing. Awful. Stupid Scott not looking at sub judice though.

You should watch “Pepsi, Where’s My Jet?”.
Epic marketing failure to asterisk an outlandish rewards offer.
Thank you, just did. Great story. I deal with Yanks all the time and this was spot on. Marketing is just the art of telling lies without feeling guilty. Unis have courses on it. Astounding.
But I got my computer – aim small!
It seems the consensus has been established that TailGunner was, in fact, a Neo-Nazi nutjob.
And aspiring mandarine harvester.
I said earlier that bolta had interviewed david karoly who had been infecting kiddies with climate change bullshit. In fact it was this old bastard: nick abel; he looks like he presented: an inbred, tooth decay ridden piece of shit.
JohnJJJ.
They did spin the story out a bit (as streaming services are wont to do).
But it was an interesting story with some (ahem) “larger than life” characters.
A simple asterisk and fine-print disclaimer could have prevented it all.
From memory, one of the judges who made a very strange ruling favouring Pepsi may have presided over one of Trump’s legal battles.
And miss the comedy? Nah.
I share the opinions of many and disagree with just as many, but this robust defence of a giggling, serial-killer sympathiser who had no skin in the same when it counted, and when said defence is led by a cryptic all-knowing God Oracle – well, this requires some level of opposition.
Yeah nah. You back that type of statement, expect some commentary.
OK, so one of the Pepsi points guy’s backers hired Michael Avanetti as a lawyer, and Judge Kimba Wood presided over one of the cases.
She also presided over a case involving Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen.
KD, nobody much gives a toss about TailGunner & never did.
He’s had more mention tonight from Stencho than he’s ever had.
The bloke was way too full on for most people, & apart from a coterie of followers, nobody much had anything to do with him.
I’ve no idea if anything said about him tonight is true or not, as I plain did not ever pay that much attention to him.
Scoring points in absentia over a long departed Cat isn’t a spectator sport.
Y’all should get a room to continue slating TG.
Correct.
I am not sure when “no longer around to defend himself” became a defence for Nazism.
Adolf Eichmann would probably be pleased to hear about that statute of limitations.
In any case, if TailGunner was here, I wonder what his defence would be.
And, also, what led to his departure from here anyway?
East Anglia University?
Now what are they famous for?

Snatcho, satisfy your Tailgunner obsession by taking an A4 image of him with you into a dunny cubicle. Come out when your fetish is…er… spent.
That way the rest of us don’t have you scroll past hours of continual “Tailgunner/Brevik/Nazi/weirdo” being splattered all over the screen.
Would love another weekend in Sydney catching up with you lot would be the icing on the cake. Keep me in the loop.
And yes, should the epidural be cancelled I’ll be looking at flights. Or maybe even the train…love trains for the very reasons Bruce of Newk enumerated earlier.
Okay. Well, this is true:
1. He made much of being ‘essential’ and employed (and paid) when hundreds of thousands of people in his State alone weren’t so lucky;
2. As soon as he had skin in the game, i.e. ‘released’ at the first opportunity by his employer, it was someone else’s fault and he immediately dived straight into the Nuffer Pool deep end;
3. From there it was a short step to the avowed Nazi-affiliated mass murders of people in and barely out of their teens was not only acceptable but right; and
4. I didn’t bring it up. Someone else did, and also mentioned how good a bloke he was on the strength of meeting him.
People who were paying attention then, picked this up now.
Traffic controller.
Just to be clear, I was not defending TG at all. Simply stating a fact. I was not around much at the time his meltdown occurred so I cannot comment. I saw no sign of any of that when I encountered him in person. It’s hardly surprising that the stress of Afdanistan at that particular time would reveal people’s true colours. Still no excuse.
I have no time at all for apologists of Nazism, mass murderers or terrorists.
Jeremy Corbyn on Skah, firmly in the Hamas corner.
Further, that anyone who had not met him was disqualified from forming a view on the disgusting shit he peddled.
It seems he was “young* and naive” and just “a good brownshirt who had lost his way”.
…
* at least 40.
go on … flog yourself out sancho
You’ve mistaken me for someone who cares a fig for TG.
There’s been more posted about him (& scrolled past) than anybody would ever want/need/care to know.
He was too full on for me, on top of which I never really paid any attention to him.
If we’re going to spend half a thread rehashing departed Cats, I’d rather talk about ones who made a more positive & nuanced contribution.
Eg, Daddy Dave. What ever happened to him?
get a little fellatio from KD to help you along
Where he’s always been.
No worries. Your colours are nailed to the mast then.
Champ.
that was solipsistic
you wouldnt get it
I have five nephews. One of them is a Grampians Nazi. Hard core. He has no interest in bothering people like Cassie etc. Hates Palies and every other person that isn’t European.
That is his go.
Interesting that there has been a lot of chatter here of late about politicians past and present being asleep at the wheel when it comes to vetting immigrants.
But the reaction when someone points to an actual advocate for genocide?
Meh.
Does that mean we can’t ever bring up Marcus Adonis?
Every single one turns into midair collisions.
How many migration hearings did this someone preside over?
Which is where this little exercise has been most enlightening.
The innernet lasts for a very long time.
Nonetheless, he is a psycho, Lives in FNQ so all good.
Bringing up the past? How frightful.
British public will adore Andrew. Drilling barely legal girls. What’s so bad about that?
Marcus who?
do your best shiffer-brains
Andrew who?
I see my number one Broken has turned up.
KD … come on cock head, your wits against mine
Andrew who?
The former Prince Andrew. Who else?
No wonder the shit for brains doesn’t like bringing up the past.
The prince andrew will be adored comment would have to go down as one of the 5 best face plants in the history of the blog.
He actually wanted a citation a few weeks ago.
The only citation he didn’t need was the “I’m for labor royalty” stock.
caution: you may have think for yourself
Oh, right.
That Andrew.
Easy to forget now that he is permanently posted to Balmoral as the King’s Second Assistant Salmon Warden.
I’m surprised his adoring public stand for it.
I see my number one Broken, the bigmouth who can’t back a bet, is here.
Two bets it was too gutless (or too broke) to back.
The equivalent of getting onto all fours & crawling backward in my presence.
Bolt?
Must be feeling like “an ANZAC at Lone Pone” at the moment.
What’s the little Anders Breivik between friends.
What this blog needs is more frontline hotelier tales.
Something like this plot-line …
1. I got audited by XYZ Government Department.
2. They sent out a couple of smart-arsey city slicker kids (played by Indians)
3. These kids tried to pull some gotcha on me.
4. I pointed out the relevant section of the XYZ Legislation, proving them wrong and sent them packing with their tales between their legs.
5. The Department Head rang me to apologise and offered compensation.
Something like that.

What this blog needs is ……………………….
How Mrs Stencho Pantyhose is now getting on with those recently arrived Muzzies living next door. Are they learning English yet?. A great language invented by those lovely English BTW.
Stuff like that. Really incisive stuff and all that.
The Blog awaits.
Oh , I thought the ticks were going slightly askew just now, and here’s the tickster in a freshly changed diaper

Wow. Deep there bloke. I googled it. I reckon I might be one.
In any authoritarian society, the possessor of power dictates, and if you try and step outside, he will come after you. This is equally true of Sovietism, of China and of Iran, and in our time it has happened a lot in Islam. The point is that it’s worse when the authoritarianism is supported by something supernatural.

Free speech is the whole thing, the whole ball game. Free speech is life itself.

In 1943, the swastika flew over the Norwegian Parliament.
Today, that little forecourt is pasted with Palestinian flags.
Beside the fortress there is an odd little memorial. It comprises a scattered grouping of empty chairs. During the occupation, hundreds of Norwegian Jews were rounded up and transported to Germany from the nearby dock. The chairs represent the few who returned. It’s one of the most poignant memorials I have ever seen.
FMD, this Nietzsche bloke goes through the Kleenex.
What a sook.
Wow

We await Marty’s gas release in the morning now.
I could never reach that sublime level of trolling. At least, not without my trusty AI side-kick.
on TG, it appears the forum is missing a convenient hate-figure to pile on and TG (or Monty?) was the last, good troll people miss the most. Strange how people need something or someone to hate on.
Hey Wodney.
Tell us the one about the inheritance from your great-grandfather.
You know, the bar of soap he got as part of his WW1 rations which has been handed down through generations of the Woddenhead family.
Only some people.

No plussing, please.
It’s unseemly.
The inflation news is pretty big news. Oil prices easing off could also help next month’s too.
Marty wept.
Forget Nietzsche, I’ve been bombarded by Ibsen today.
I rather like that one.
You mean like Neo-Nazis and their irrational hatred of … well … nearly everyone eventually?
Nietzsche was a great Twas the Kevin Kline character from a Fish Called Wanda that got me into him.
Seems like a vast store of hate would be needed to oppose ‘nearly everyone’.
I hate people who talk loudly on public transport. There, I said it. And will refuse to recant even if offered googol amounts of upticks.

Everything hinges on the US 10 year bond yield now. The Aussie dollar is up 1% since the news.
Living life around the 10 year bond rate. 🙂
And not a peep out of Dutchsinse on the web that I can see.
How come he missed a big one, huh?
