I posted my obligatory Phys.org science news story of the day on arse end of the old thread. Which is probably the best place for it, so I won’t repeat it here.
All this talk about lower voter turnout for the Dems compared to 2020 can just as equally be explained as fake turnout that occurred then, but not now.
Afterall, if voting for the first black, man President was a compelling reason, then the first black, lady President is a lot more compelling a reason to actually vote than what Biden represented, for those who would be motivated for that sort of thing. Especially if they weren’t worried about getting the covid this time around.
So the Rising Tide blockade of Newcastle harbour will go ahead regardless of a Supreme Court injunction against it:

Contempt of court proceedings, anyone? If (like the Wilkinson speech at the Logies) that’s not contempt then I don’t know what is.

They were confronted by the fact that Trump’s pitch to the American people, built on his dark and lie-packed vision of a country in terminal decline, “swamped” by murdering “illegal aliens”, and on the point of a communist takeover, had prevailed
Cry more, it just makes my genitals more engorged…
Harris’s aborted victory party, followed by a delayed concession speech, bore chilling echoes with Hillary Clinton’s painful experience in 2016. For the second time in eight years, a woman had failed to break through the “highest, hardest glass ceiling” to become America’s first female president – thwarted by a man who campaigned against them in the most disparaging terms.
What is a woman??
Trump’s victory also came five days before world leaders gather in Baku, Azerbaijan, for the Cop29 climate summit at which they will attempt to forge a deal in which rich nations help the developing world avoid fossil fuel-powered growth. Trump’s mantra of “drill, baby, drill”, and his warning that he will pull the US out of the Paris agreement for a second time, now hang ominously over the proceedings.
Vision blurring… all .blood ..in genitals..
He has pledged to smash the US government as we know it, firing hundreds of thousands of civil servants and replacing them with “yes” people. He has threatened to carry out the largest mass deportation of undocumented immigrants in US history – amounting to many millions. He has vowed to end the independence of the US justice department, and pursue prosecutions of his political enemies while eradicating the federal cases against himself.

Fascinating that there hasn’t been a 2016 style explosion.
No blatant violence, no pompous moronic actors squarking, no pussy hats, no threats, no national pilgrimages, no Bob, no George.
Could the Left have burned themselves out?
Hopefully not. We need a reason for Trump to crush them.
To call the churnalists of the gruinaid unhinged does not even scratch the surface. How do these people function. Here’s the middle finger for your stupidity and a sideways one for the goat you rode in on.
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Wrong, not “a woman”, but again the wrong woman/candidate.
People in general are stupid and easily influenced, but not that stupid.
Could it be that they were not really needed in the first place?
It happens you know, when times are good with big companies.
the “highest, hardest glass ceiling”
How many layers of this glass ceiling are there, and is it static?
Have we considered that POTUS Trump may have the remote control for moving the glass ceiling in one of his pockets?
Why do (some) women have the desire to smash glass?
Hahaaa!

2024 Election Meltdowns Continue!
The Tele:
“Harris calls for ‘respect’ as Rudd removes anti-Trump tweet.”
where?
““I do not concede the fight that fuelled this campaign”. She said the Democrats “will engage in a peaceful transfer of power”…“This is a time to roll up our sleeves. This is a time to mobilise organise and stay engaged for the sake of freedom and justice and the future we all know we can build together,” she said.”
really? She said no such thing.
“Kamala Harris Concedes With Bitter, Divisive Speech”Kamala Harris’s concession speech was a blend of the obligatory humble platitudes but included its fair share of pointed, bitter undertones, making it hard to discern if she was truly conceding or rallying for a future fight.
A reminder that there are still plenty of shithole countries in the world.

It does prompt the question of how foreign companies can do business with a despotic regime with a clear conscience. Perhaps under the argument that to refuse to do business with them would be making a political statement. The business is merely business logic.
Peter FitzSimons makes extraordinary ultimatum after suggesting Americans who voted for Trump are stupid
Daily Mail.
Maybe FitzSimons should swap harbour-side Sydney for a year in a Texan border town or a small city in flyover country where the factory closed in the 1990s.
Then he might begin to understand Americans who voted for Trump.
Haven’t heard this very often in this incarnation of the blog.
The fun viewing continues.

MORE ELECTION MELTDOWNS 2024 EDITION
Which is why he couldn’t stop telling all and sundry, as if anyone sane who had the misfortune to hear his worthless opinion gave a rodent’s.
A good day to quietly bury bad news.
Historically, 2020 is the outlier. Obama ’12, Clinton ’16, and Harris ’24 are all in the same ballpark. It’s Biden ’20 that stands out as like dog’s balls.
are these public meltdowns some form of affirmation of righteous virtue signalling?? asking for a friend
Would Donald Trump be aware of Albo’s quote “I fight Tories, that’s what I do?”

Hmm.
Tsk, tsk, Guardian.
What, exactly, is this thing called a “woman”?
Please define it for your confused readers.
I hope and pray there is much more of this quality “thinking” by our leftist intelligencia.
A marketing man, skilled at targeting discontent, Trump does not follow his crowds. Rather, he is led by the money men around him: the fossil fuel executives, the shadow bankers, the crypto bros and the world’s richest man, Elon Musk.

A while back, Peter Fitzsimian declared on Twitter that the 58000 residents of Springfield Ohio wanted the 10000+ Haitian immigrations. They were delighted to have them in effect. But, somehow, the County went heavy for Trump, the Congressional seat went heavily Republican, and the state of Ohio went for Trump/Vance.
These Springfield folks seem entirely ungrateful, not rewarding Kamal for her largesse.
An orange Hercules. Nice.

I’ve had a few generations of Will Wagtails nest here for several years but they’ve been a bit shy the last year or so.
I’ve heard them around the carport and front verandah this year but unable to see the nest.
This morning, I opened the front door to see two newly hatched babies sitting on the railings. They look ridiculous – long skinny legs on minute bodies.
So I’ve put out bread for them and I’m defrosting a bit of sausage mince to see if they accept it.
I’ll try to get some photos.
