    Outstanding burnout, Steve.

    How do they do that when they can’t see a thing?

    Jimmy Fallon singing about how XBB.1.5 is the best Covid variant yet

    He’s right though, it’s the best name for a new variant. XBB.1.5, it sounds like the latest jet fighter or high performance street racer.

    If you were going to get the dreaded plague, wouldn’t you want to say it’s the XBB.1.5 rather than the boring alpha, delta and omicron varieties.

    Girls can do anything – (Darwin awards finalist)
    19 year old Emily Sotelo died of exposure on Mt. Lafayette, NH last month. An avid hiker, she was trying to summit all 48 peaks over 4000 ft by her birthday. It seems that she had only gotten into hiking a few years ago, and had no experience with winter hiking. Here is a (partial) list of survival gear that she did not have:
    Hiking boots (she wore “off road” sneakers)
    Map
    Compass
    Matches
    Flashlight or headlamp
    Winter coat (she had a light jacket)

    Members of the Old Dominion men’s basketball team watched in shock, and many held back tears, as their teammate Imo Essien collapsed during play in the first half of the contest.

    I only went one meter in and plonked myself for the soak.

    Similar to the social movement Movember, which encourages men to grow mustaches in November to raise awareness of men’s health issues, such as prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and men’s suicide, Januhairy is an annual event targeted to women. Launched by Laura Jackson back in 2018 and started as an experiment for women to be sponsored to grow out their body hair for a month, Januhairy aims to promote body positivity and acceptance of body hair on women.

    So it’s not similar then.

    Two horses have been rescued after escaping from a horse racing promotion along Surfers Paradise beach and crossing tram lines and the busy Gold Coast Highway on Tuesday morning.

    The Magic Millions extravaganza, where horses are ridden along the sand, went wrong when the horses became loose and took off into traffic and residential areas…

  21. The worst thing about people riding horses on the beach is that they can reach you in no time when you thought it was safe for a skinny dip. Take care, Steve. 🙂

    There was movement at Surfer’s Paradise, for the word had passed around
    That the racehorses from Magic Millions had got away,
    And had joined the wild bush horses – they were worth a thousand pounds,
    So all the cracks had gathered to the fray.

    The phobic feminixts at the forefront of defending all the wokeism:

    1/
    NY pro-Homo-feminist school principal

    NYC middle school principal confirms in an email that the school offers the pornographic book “This Book is Gay” and have no plans of removing it.

    The book teaches kids about gay sex and encourages the use of sex apps.

    This is what they’re giving 12 yr olds to read.

    2/
    Swedish pro-Islamo-feminists

    Islamized Sweden

    Swedish “feminists” demand non-muslim women “respect” Sharia & embrace the beauty of having multiple wives (also child brides) who can help take care of the man, home & children

    It increasingly appears that it will be Sweden that integrates into Islamic culture

    3/
    The wokesters are so removed from reality, they have no idea what they are defending.

    Amid unrest, Iran’s hardliners turn their anger to France

    Iranian hardliners on Sunday burned French flags outside the French embassy in Tehran, protesting cartoons published by the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo that lampoon Iran’s ruling clerics.

  27. Bellbird Picnic Area, Kew, Victoria

    Parks Victoria are installing most sprayers in the trees beside the Yarra to keep the bats cool in heatwaves.

    Whatever did they do before whitey arrived? 🤔


    Report comment
  28. Answer (on the same sign): bats like the location as the adjacent river moderates both heatwaves and cold snaps and when it’s hot, they belly-skim the river in flight for that glorious cool douse.

    Died suddenly at 51.
    Don’t know vax status.

    Conservative commentator “Diamond” of Diamond and Silk fame suddenly died on Monday, according to the duo’s official twitter account.

    ***

    Trump’s take

    President Donald Trump commented on the tragic news Monday night on Truth Social, writing, “Really bad news for Republicans and frankly, all Americans. Our beautiful Diamond, of Diamond and Silk, has just passed away at her home in the State she loved so much, North Carolina.”

    “Silk was with her all the way, and at her passing,” he added. “There was no better team anywhere, or at any time! Diamond’s death was totally unexpected, probably her big and precious heart just plain gave out. Rest in peace our magnificent Diamond, you will be greatly missed!”

    Steve, sea water does have healing properties for the skin. It is also absorbed by the skin into the body.

    It is great if one is able to get out to the ocean for a soak, especially now in the summer. That is the best option. But if someone lives a great distance away or can’t get there, the alternative is soaking in salt water in your bathtub.

    There is a calculation about the water:salt ratio to achieve the same salinity as the sea. There are two salts that are helpful for the bath soaks: Sea Salt and Epsom Salts (Magnesium Sulphate). I used to buy salts in bulk some years ago.

    Pallets of these Sea Salt packs and this big sack of Epsom Salts.

    Got a hefty amount of mineral salts for that.😘

    There’s Harry’s book that we have been hearing about for months as one that would reveal shocking details. Bah humbug. Who cares?

    But there’s another book being published this week. A book written by Pope Benedict’s private secretary, Archbishop Georg Gänswein, Nothing but the Truth: My Life Beside Pope Benedict XVI.

    In Italian and German. Not sure when the English translation will be available. If it is nothing but the truth, there are going to be some revelations.

    The phrase “death is not suspicious” is a euphemistic code. The end of the article will have contact numbers for Lifeline and Beyond Blue.

    If neighbours heard people arguing it would make the death suspicious. Police may have some other evidence.

    Expecting EQ activity to continue to ramp up over the next week.

    Watch.

    Oh, if you are working under a car or undertaking high risk work, take precautions. OZ is difficult for EQ forecasts.

    However, when big ones happen to the North, remain vigilant. Do not expect anyone from a .Gov to give out such advice. This latest X1.9 class Flare has just added fuel.

    I’ve learned a lot from Dutchsinse…the tree lopper.
