Hi Cats,
As you can see I have created a copy of the Cat for you to continue to bicker, argue and occasionally make a reasonable point.
I do hope a solution is found with the original Cat but just in case Sinc doesn’t want to transfer the site to a new generation I have built a replica before the closure so we can migrate as many of the community across as possible.
Programming Note: I rushed out the site so there will be bugs. I can get them fixed but did not want perfection to get in the way for progress.
Community Note: Please let as many cats know of the new blog as soon as possible so we can capture the magic of the original. In particular would love for the original posters to continue their great work here.
Ideological Note: I am an infrequent poster but long time reader of the Cat. The discussions there have been a huge part of my own ideological growth on many issues. In particular free speech is key for me so will have a very similar light touch to the original Cat, potentially adopting my one policy on an earlier forum I built: “No D***heads” which is subjective but surprisingly easy to implement.
Website Note: I will run the Cat as close to possible as the original because I don’t believe in re-inventing the wheel. However if the community so wants I am happy to make changes to improve the experience so if you have any ideas let me know. For anything specific hit me up at the contact form, else go nuts in the comments.
Adam, how can I put it in terms you will understand. Socks abounding here now from trolls. It is like a sustained DOS attack and will kill the site.

Misleading analogy. The vaccines have been developed very quickly but not as much as people assume. mRNA technology is nearly 30 years in development. If you have a problem with the speed of development take that up with Trump’s Warp Speed strategy.
“The scientists I spoke to aren’t sure where the “seven or eight years” rule comes from. Most phase-three vaccine trials – that’s the big one you do before you apply to roll it out – follow up volunteers for just 12 months, Jim Buttery, head of signal investigation at Victoria’s immunisation safety service, tells me.”
…
“Of 57 vaccines approved by the US since 1996, the median safety follow-up was 1½ months. Yet only one had to be withdrawn from the market for safety reasons; at the same time, these vaccines cut the incidence of common viruses such as polio and measles by more than 90 per cent.”

Went outside a short time ago, there was a new kooka in the big camellia near the front door. I looked at her and she looked at me, then she decamped to a safer branch in the jacaranda.
So in an experiment I tossed a bit of meat onto the carport roof near where a currawong was perching. Wham! She knew what Coles mince is, did she ever. Several more lumps of mince and she was a happy new Cafe Bruce customer, although she wouldn’t tolerate me within about 5 m.
She (gender assumption warning) is the second new kookaburra I’ve seen in a week. Another one turned up who was already so acclimatized to humans she allowed me to hand feed her on the back fence the very first time.
I suspect whatever goes for kookaburra Tinder is active. The Cafe kooka lost his mate this year and is a fine prospect.

Scummo finally speaking up about free speech….
“Christensen free to speak mind on masks: PM
Scott Morrison has defended Nationals MP George Christensen’s “right to free speech” amid allegations he is “undermining” public health measures.
While responding to a question from Macarthur MP Mike Freelander, which cited comments by Mr Christensen saying Covid mask mandates is an “insanity”, the Prime Minister said he didn’t share the views of the Dawson MP, but defended his ability to speak his mind.
“I have been very clear about that but I tell you what, in this country people have a right to free speech. They do. They do have a right to free speech in this country and that is not something that the government is seeking to clamp down on,” Mr Morrison told Question Time on Wednesday afternoon.
Moments before, Mr Christensen had been flaunting requests by speaker Tony Smith for all members to wear face masks while in the chamber. After being alerted to this by Labor, Mr Smith asked the Dawson MP to respect the statement he made on Tuesday.
Mr Morrison then turned his attention to Labor’s preselection of outspoken AstraZeneca critic Michelle Anada-Rajah in the seat of Higgins. He accused Labor of “setting the standard”, talking down the AstraZeneca vaccine.
“The leader of the Labor Party should take the example of the former leader of the Labor Party who’s happy to get out there and support the CSL workers who are out there making those AstraZeneca vaccines that the leader of the Labor Party seems to be crab walking away from,” he said.”
Pity Scummo didn’t say the same back in February when progressive SCUM attacked Craig Kelly and Scummo fell hook, line and sinker for it and sided with the left against Kelly. But it’s amazing how you can suddenly find some principles when you only have a one seat majority. I suppose better late than never.

Look, I like monty’s effort, but a liberal cannot be left to curate a cultural and political blog of the Right. Moderating the Open Forum is not the same as selecting writers or topics to be discussed, etc. People need to be clear about what they want beyond the Open Forum. Also, the precis monty has in the intro invites us to return to 2003 Australia as if nothing has happened politically, intellectually, and culturally since then; a sort of return to innocence. But, alas, there is no going back. What has been seen and witnessed cannot be unseen and denied.

I disagree vehemently with much of what Mushroom has to say but this is 100% correct. Isn’t there a crime called Negligent Homicide? Murder in other words. How many of those who have died would still be alive if they had been treated with known therapeutics, especially early on.

Look, I like monty’s effort, but a liberal cannot be left to curate a cultural and political blog of the Right.
