...and of course Australia, US lapdog - "love you long time" - laps up the hype. The people, I hope, are not buying it. "China says alleged plot to groom Nick Zhao to infiltrate Australian Parliament 'nothing but lies'" Wild stories emanating from certain conservative Australian politicians operating from "a state of hysteria" and "extreme...

Misplaced Trust In Human Nature
Australia's Westpac Bank - one of the Big Four - bringing a new level of meaning to the term 'Banksters'. "Westpac CEO Brian Hartzer quits amid pressure over money laundering scandal" 23 Million separate breaches of the law. What can you say? Symptomatic of the times? Yes, of course. The product of human greed or... Continue Reading →
“The American News Media Is Committing Suicide Along With The Democratic Party” – Kunstler
What a lead up to the end of the year. It appears to be 'Show Time', and I don't mean the "Adam Schiff’s impeachment soap opera" sideshow - made just for laughs, or perhaps just to showcase the impressario's googly eyes. The all-American media and political showboat is beginning to generate great entertainment value. Don't...

…and Another Thing That Astounds

“When Did a Bee Ever Send You An Invoice?” – Quote
Why do endangered flies need to be imprisoned in a small area of bank-owned habitat surrounded by industries set up on land that has for aeons been the fly's habitat? Industries that have bought shares to 'protect' them? It's the financialisation of nature, and it is the most heinous of all the crimes of mankind. ... Continue Reading →
‘Lost Ember’
I just found a new indie computer game, based on a theme close to my heart. Released yesterday, 22 November, and now in my library, it is called 'Lost Ember'. Here is the blurb from the Game's Steam page: "A breathtakingly beautiful world holds the secrets of its past for you and your companion to... Continue Reading →
What Lies Ahead?
I have struggled to find something worth talking about for the past few days. The fate of our civilisation is cast in concrete - it's going to crash, and is already in the process of doing so. So there is not much to talk about there until some major event occurs - probably next year....

Not Something Else
