    I received the best news today.

    A close friend on mine, of whom with his wife after numerous attempts in their 40’s to have a child finally succeeded. The little bloke is healthy and has not been jabbed.

    I said, if you go to a doctor suggesting the little one get a C-19 jab, take me with you. I’ll proverbially rip his f*****g head off!

    Him: I take it you have not had it.
    Me: Correct.

    I’ve listed off all the reasons why and it rattled him. NO MORE JABS! He was completely oblivious to the information that exists and I will take no prisoners. His mum took the jabs and came close to death.

    His dad is f*ckwit that worked for Stokes for a news agency that… I’ll let you guess.

    My conversation rattled him. I need to do the same thing with my father. My comfort is not all batches are the same. BIG PHARMA were allowed Carte Blanche to do what they want…I’ll be asking for the batch numbers.

    Ted, that story about quolls is just anthropomorphism writ large.

    There are all sorts of weird (to us) variants on mating in the natural world.

    What do these ‘researchers’ make of spiders where the female kills the male after mating?

    There is obviously far too much money washing around in the world of ‘researchers’ if that’s what they come up with.

    The immediate reinstatement of alcohol bans in remote communities and town camps in Central Australia has been delayed following crisis talks between Chief Minister Natasha Fyles and the Prime Minister in Canberra, with the pair stating the report recommending the bans will be discussed by their respective cabinets next week and decisions made then.

    Hundreds allege sexual abuse in Victorian state schools

    Will there be an apology? An investigation? Don’t hold your breath

    A freedom of information (FOI) request submitted in 2022 by outgoing Victorian MP Stuart Grimley has this week yielded a shocking revelation. As reported by the Guardian, “almost 400 civil claims have been made against the Victorian government for historical child sexual abuse in state schools in the past 12 years”.

    Kaysee, regarding your point above about those people who didn’t attend Cardinal Pell’s funeral, their behaviour is disgusting.

    They fear the god of the Commie cult and are afraid of being cancelled.

    I listened to some of this earlier today.
    One interesting topic was the idea being pushed that rejecting the sexual advances of someone is discrimination. This ties in to trans men being given access to female bathrooms, and if you object you’re a bigot. They mention an interesting story of a Google employee that was sacked because he didn’t reciprocate the advances from an Asian female working there.

    Put your hand up if you knew about this? All those anti-vaxxers on talk back radio years ago were onto something. I, like many others, dismissed them. This changes everything. As I’ve said before, audio record and film every interaction with the MSM…basically avoid anything to do with them with their current platforms.

    If they want an interview, you do it under your terms. If the bastards decide to do a slice and dice, you will have the opportunity to expose them.

    Veteran adventurer Fedor Konyukhov landed in Australia on 23 July 2016 after a 268h 20min flight in a Roziere balloon, breaking the 2002 record of aviation legend Steve Fossett (320h 33min). Konyukhov and Fossett are now the only two pilots to have completed a solo circumnavigation of the globe in a balloon.

    Another memory with that balloon flight. People got out their scissors and razor blades and cut out pieces of the balloon to take home for mementoes.

    I’d have done the same.

    Konyukhov was not happy, but probably chilled on it afterwards. I doubt he would ever do it again. He got scared when approaching Antarctica, but thankfully, caught the jet stream to take him back to Northam from where he started.

    Just finished watching the Del Bigtree – The Vaccine Safety Project clip in full. I reckon most would not have a clue about the facts contained in it. It’s not a fault of them for not knowing, the power of Big-Pharma is immense when it comes to the MSM, so share this. How else will people find out?

    The U.S. military has shot down the Chinese spy balloon over the Atlantic Ocean.

    While the balloon was off the coast of South Carolina, it was shot down by U.S. military fighter jets on Saturday afternoon, according to Fox News sources. A senior U.S. military official said that an F-22 was used to bring down the balloon at 58,000 feet, adding that a single A9X missile was fired.

    A senior defense official said during a Thursday afternoon briefing that the U.S. government is “confident” the surveillance balloon is from the People’s Republic of China.

    When asked about the balloon on Saturday by a reporter, Biden said, “We’re going to take care of it.”

    You have to question everything coming out of the USA right now. Has this story been hyped to move attention to China and away from the US created disaster in Ukraine? Will the US shoot Zelensky next? Tune in next episode, folks.

    I don’t want to use up the pixels on this blog with my rants. But, then again, there’s plenty of ranting space on the Open Threads for those who want to do so.

    This past Wednesday, I heard something on the radio that had me wanting to rant. As is often the case, the time ran out on me. There is a great deal to write on this – it would take up a series of Posts but again 🕗 …. not enough of it.

    I will stick with the basics here – for those who may not have had access in the past to the discussions.

    There is a presenter on the air waves referred to as “the king of talk-back radio”. He has been around for decades. Hung up the mike. Then came back. He doesn’t need the money. He doesn’t need the experience. Does he have what it takes to keep up with the influx of news and info, in this present scene of 2023?

    There are younger and better radio presenters who are more aware with what is happening in the world today, of world affairs – Ukraine, Covid, WEF, UN and so on. To keep going on, based on one’s past reputation and knowledge, isn’t good enough. He is okay on some past issues and general topics and if someone wants to have a yarn.

    A few days ago, he mentioned George Pell – the lying in state and funeral service the next day. And he proved how out of touch he is with real news and that he relies on FSM (Fake Stream Media) and the lies of Always Biased Cabal.

    The same tape:

    a/ George Pell guilty of not doing enough about the cases of sexual abuse in the Church. He must have known …….

    b/ Pell’s case was quashed by the High Court on a “technicality”

    c/ The evil Catholic Church, sexual abusers and paedophiles.

    All that he said displayed his ignorance and intellectual laziness. He has probably been getting his info from the MSM and been guzzling the Kool Aid with it. Wrong on Covid. On Ukraine. And on Pell and the Catholic Church.

    a/ Did George Pell do enough about the problem of sexual abuse cases?

    His work in this area has been detailed elsewhere and also repeated during his funeral mass on Thursday.

    What is the “enough” I do not know? I’d think no rational person, in a position of authority, can feel that they have ever done enough about stopping any evil taking place.

    …

    b/ The case where Pell was on trial and jailed was quashed due to “a technicality”?

    No one who has read and followed the case can say he was freed on a “technicality”. There are facts that explain that there wasn’t a case to begin with. The technicality mantra is used by the losers wh
