As the Boomer generation starts to die out, who are the other generations going to blame for all their problems once they are gone? Will Generation X become the Hated Ones, the same Generation X that whined the longest and loudest against Boomers?🤔

Not that long ago, in my lawyer role, I completed an online course with University of London. It was interesting. I was engaged and I passed with "distinction". I can remember bugger all of what it was about whereas I can still recall many of the things learned in face-to-face undergraduate school.

Ah, how good is Christian charity in the state of Tennessee? Having failed to execute Christa Pike twice, they are giving her health care so she can recover enough for them to have another go. Jesus would be so proud of them.

To replace the legacy Parties and gain government, the Greens must shed their image of being pot-smoking, tree-huggers & get serious about the Big Issues: Tax reform National home-building program Education Genuine anti-corruption measures Military positioning & spending Clean energy Migration etc.

You couldn't get a fag paper between Albanese and Howard these days. Progressives need a centre-left party to vote for. ALP, LNP and ON are all out to the loony right to varying degrees.

The spooks are rarely as efficient and organised as we've come to expect from decades of James Bond movies. It is telling, though, that in this time of heightened tensions due to Iran/Putin etc. the arrested people have been released on police bail. Meaning they are not considered a threat. Curious.

The allege "terrorists" have all been released on police bail, meaning they are not considered a threat to the public. I smell a bungled 'false flag' op. The cover up begins.

The RAF Fairford event becomes more curious by the day. We find the arrested "terrorists" are now released on police bail, meaning they are not considered a threat to the community. Are we looking at a 'false flag' op that went pear-shaped thanks to a vigilant public?

"D'alexia placebo qm exnudict dommus uaxm manoms mee" I think it might be Psalm 59 (KJV) and part of the prayer cycle for the Office of the Dead, "Deliver me from mine enemies, Oh my God: defend me from them that rise up against me..." I stand to be corrected.

As a clear example of fossil fuel folly, Chevrolet has just released an 8.3 litre V8 to power its pickup trucks. The Small Penis Brigade will no doubt rush to buy them. If only we had a government with the intestinal fortitude to slap a 100% tariff on these carbon emitters.

Donald Horne ironically said, "Australia is a lucky country run mainly by second-rate people who share in its luck." That luck is rapidly running out. We can no longer rely on scraps thrown to us by foreigners who run us like a quarry, or on unearned profits from property Ponzi schemes.
