Cynical, retired old newspaperman based in Central Victoria. Now a happy goat farmer. The world has lost its mind. We are all headed for disaster. 😔

The Nationals (and their agrarian socialist supporters) promote nuclear because the plants/reactors are pinpointed for areas like Newcastle and Port Kembla, where others have to live with the consequences. An awful political party with awful supporters.

Love doesn’t cure everything, but it makes the hard times so much easier to live with. That is such a very special and beautiful message.

It often logs me out and does tend to be a bit temperamental.

“… an articulate Liberal moderate.” That’s a laugh.

So disappointed with that outcome. 😔

Timmy is such an awful human being. Zoe is a much nicer person

These LNP fuckwits would piss it all up against a wall, giving billions to $2 companies set up in tin sheds on Kangaroo Island and even more to multinational consultancy donors.

David Speers used to phone Scott Morrison's office almost every day when Morrison was PM, one of the very few journalists that did it every_single_day However, never dismiss ambition and ruthless hunger for ratings for respected, thoughtful analysis - they are not the same thing

This is very sad. Petro was one of the genuine liberals.

I often wish they made bags of just licorice ones. I know they’re not popular but I like them.

I really don’t know what to say. I hope the next little while is as easy and gentle for you as it possibly can be. Take care. 😔💔

I know. If you have any trouble finding a home for Basil, let me know. I’d be delighted to take him.

I know that must have been such a tough thing to do. Take care. 🙁

Sorry to read this. If there’s such a thing as a collective will, there will be many of us willing you through to your birthday and beyond. Take care - and may the next course of chemo have the best outcome for you. PK

And if folks in this country don’t realize Australia is next, they’re kidding themselves. It’s time to stop being alert and to be very afraid.

I grew up in Cold War (west) Germany. I know real Nazis. This was a real Nazi salute. It wasnt unintentional. It wasnt accidental. It wasnt awkward. It was intentional, with purpose, for a purpose. People need to wake the fuck up.

Yes, in my view Vance is a more awful character to contemplate. The US has been captured by the oligarchs. Even if democracy was under threat there before November’s election, it’s a corpse now. Grim times ahead.

You’ve certainly had a rough few months. 😞 Thinking of you and hoping you’re feeling better soon.

Profits over patients. Yes, that’s going to solve the problem. Starmer is an idiot.
