More anti-vax bullshit –
The deadly and harmful ingredients of the monkeypox (mpox) vaccine
The reality –
Out of 13,294 research articles initially identified, 187 were screened after removing duplicates. Following the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the meta-analysis included ten studies with 7430 patients. Three researchers independently assessed the risk of bias in the included study. The pooled results suggest that the vaccinia-exposed group had fewer side effects when compared to the vaccinia naïve group (odds ratio: 1.66; 95% CI: 1.07–2.57; p = 0.03). Overall, the modified vaccinia has proven safe and effective in both vaccinia naïve and previously exposed groups, with higher efficacy in the previously exposed groups.

NYT journo Olivia Nuzzi has been having some sort of dalliance with RFK Jnr while reporting on national politics from Washington, including a nice profile of him and several nasty pieces on Biden. The age difference is decades, he is married, she is engaged. Eww.

Hindsight is both a good and bad thing, in some some ways it’s a curse. We all like to pontificate and judge years after something has transpired, or in this case years after John Howard was PM. I’m the queen of hindsight. But sometimes even I need to sit back and take a chill pill. It’s hard to believe that it has now been nearly 17 years since Howard was PM, 2007 is now a distant time, and in that time since Howard was ignominiously booted (and remember, he lost his seat in that election) I do agree that this country has slipped deeper into a quagmire of bad governance and stupidity. But we should remember that when we judge Howard’s tenure as PM we are often comparing apples and oranges, 2024 is far removed from 2007 and particularly from 1996.
Whilst I do think Howard squandered opportunities, particularly during his last three years of governance when the Liberals actually had a senate majority (the last time and they are unlikely ever to do so again), as Johanna has accurately written here on this pages before, during those last Howard years nobody was calling for the ABC to be privatised or dismantled, and if such a proposition had been raised in cabinet, everyone at the time would have scoffed at such an absurd idea.
2024 is very different to 2007. We don’t need the ABC in 2024.
I’m no great defender of John Howard, I recognise his mistakes but compared to what we’ve had since him, as in Rudd, Gillard, Rudd, Abbott, Turdbull, Morrison and now the grub from Grayndler, dunno about others here but I’ll take ‘little Johnny Howard’ as PM any day. In fact, If I could reside in a dimension where I had revolving years of Hawke and Howard as PM, I’d go there in a jiffy!
Check out this Orca hunt @15:07. This occurs of the coast of Western Australia near Cape Range National Park.
Probably some of the best of the best footage ever captured of a Orca hunt.
They turn into torpedoes and knock the calf out and drag it away.
Ruthless. But hey, that’s nature.

Their can openers are extremely good, especially for older people – it un-picks the seam rather than cutting, so no sharp edges and no need to even rinse it after use (no part touches the can contents). I’ve had mine for 15 years, still going great.

Oh, sworn testimony? Well, that settles it, right? If you’re wheeling this barrow around, tubby, then I guess we also have to accept the affidavit from the ABC whistleblower claiming Kamaltoe rigged the debate, right? Or is outrage applied selectively?
Probably fake.

I came across an article comparing Elon Musk to Howard Hughes, and honestly, Musk seems like the introvert Hughes. I had to dive into Hughes’ Wikipedia page for the full saga.
Only in America can you get a guy like Howard Hughes—part eccentric genius, and the very definition of chaos.

Old People Are A Problem For Labour – Final Solution
I am not a fan of Piers Morgan, but I have seen Jordan Petersen talk on contemporary society and its mores, & can never hear enough of his profound analysis of the human condition. Below is an interview of Peterson by Morgan, particularly focussing on the US election and the tempest that is the West. Well worth the almost 60 minutes of attention.

Labour is so like Labor.
I’m no great defender of John Howard, I recognise his mistakes but compared to what we’ve had since him, as in Rudd, Gillard, Rudd, Abbott, Turdbull, Morrison and now the grub from Grayndler, dunno about others here but I’ll take ‘little Johnny Howard’ as PM any day.
And that is the very reason he is the worst. He is ostensibly the best, the wise old sage who people refer to and respect. Because he is held in high regard he is capable of being that more damaging. Forget about all his failures that I’ve outlined, just consider what he said about Trump, that Trump is a threat to democracy because Trump would not accept the umpire’s finger: I say, bad sport old toast!
Every POTUS election in the US has featured objections, law suits, protests and even revolutions. In 2000 when Bush beat Gore, the legal actions went on for months.
When Trump won in 2016 there were riots in DC for weeks. Trump was bugged, everyone from shrillary down called him illegal; idiots walked around carrying Trump’s severed heads and there many demands he be assassinated. When that ended they spent 2 years on the Russian dossier and when that failed they impeached him repeatedly and BLM and antifa riots went on for years. How about that for an election rejection. The umpire was not only ignored he was taken out the back, tarred and feathered and then shot.
Yet the sage of the liberal party is rejecting Trump because Trump complained about corrupt practices during the election: corrupt practices we know to have happened. We also know Jan 6 was an inside job and Trump was blameless even if anything happened which it did not.
Little johnnie’s TDS is no less virulent just because he is so wise and calm and measured. His faux wise demeanour makes it worse. And that is why he is the worst.
I was out getting my double bass rebridged this AM (“only” cost $400) and came across the most gorgeous Czech I’ve ever seen!!! She was a beauty.
Nice curves, red and a great body, she was made in 1907 in Czechoslovakia; of a fine rustic spruce and only costs $6,500. She is, of course, a violin. And one of the finest I’ve played…
This is going to take some saving…

Gutfeld: Kamala Harris is the ‘first AI candidate’
His attitude to Trump and Turnbull means that I no longer have any time for him. Apparently Turnbull’s disgusting public tantrums are quite ok.
It sometimes seems to me that Turnbull was Howard’s poisonous egg and eff you to Australia.
Another classic from Danger Dan Reviews:
D*ckhead Of The Week!

Almost the greatest video ever made!
My view is that Howard was charmed. Turnbull, debonair, deceptive, connected, wealthy, reputation stacked up on paper. A great “win”, bringing him in from Labor.
And there was the crikit connection.
Howard was not a good judge of character here. I’ve made similar mistakes, but then I’m not PM.
As others have noted before me, Trump is a type of Turing test. They hate him, but they can never tell you why. To face reality, they’d have to admit they’re in thrall to what the media endlessly pumps out rather than rational individuals. And that they will never do.
Spot the difference between ADF and IDF leadership.
The Chief of IDF only wears fatigues and always carries a weapon. He devotes enormous effort to face to face contact with the troops, in the field.
The CDF always wears sam browne and service dress and relies on releasing scolding videos as his means of communicating with the detested troops. If he leaves Canberra it is to travel OS, not to ADF bases or AOs.
Leadership versus self serving conceit.
As others have noted before me, Trump is a type of Turing test. They hate him, but they can never tell you why.

A practical demonstration of the failure of Howard’s version of ‘Broad Church’. Bring in someone who would otherwise be a Centre/Centre Left member of the Labor Party (minus the Union affiliation).
Result: absolute political chaos.
[Slow handclap] How’d that all work out?
Farking Dickhead.
The ‘broad church’ rubbish has been around for decades with wishy washy ‘small l’ liberals like McPhee and Fraser.
Ruddock is another example.
Um what? She got expelled for that? Mmm that doesn’t sit well with me. Likewise, I wouldn’t support the expulsion of someone who expressed their unconditional support for kiddy fiddlers/fiddling, or, say, the complete elimination of humanity (although I would certainly support such people not being allowed near children and/or laboratories of any kind). Isn’t it good to know what people like this want to let out into the world?

I mentioned this earlier today but worth repeating:
Dutton’s proposed cuts to Albanese’s immigration figures would still leave us at Howard’s ponzi levels: 160 000 per year.
