You aren't wrong. I thank you for pointing that out to me before. It is manipulative which is sad as the message is important. I have seen an interview with a grown-up Katie Johnson but now have to wonder if that was real.

It has been pointed out to me that this picture isn't Katie Johnson but a young actress. It doesn't change your message though. A 13 yo girl was recruited by Epstein and used by Trump for his perverted pleasure.

Definitely a rogue nation. Their leadership continue to show anything but. The sharing of this video by the Secretary of Defense is actually indefensible. With Trump leading the way to the bottom you have to wonder just how much further they can go.

Some unexpected close games this round. I felt a bit sorry for West Coast (it won't last). Severely undermanned and they couldn't have tried any harder. #AFL

Being white and able to sign their name or at least put an X in the right spot.

Funny how umpiring decisions change all the time. Last year Collingwood were penalised for not handing the ball to the umpire when he called for a ball-up. It resulted in a goal for Fremantle to Alex Pearce. Tonight Pearce has the ball at a ball-up and throws it away. No free. #AFL #AFLPowerFreo

Agree but I would go one step further and limit a politician to 20 years in total for all forms of government.

Just out of curiosity I decided to watch some of the #AFLLionsSwans game in Mandarin. There was no excitement in their voices. For all I know they could have been discussing the weather. Back to English for me. #AFL

He has basically gone to the election on a platform of honesty and transparency but to date has displayed not a lot of either. If the money to pay the liquidators was from a legitimate source he would have had no problems disclosing it. Now we wait to see what the quid pro quo is.

I think it is English but nevermind. We always use breakfast, lunch and tea and disregard dinner altogether. When I was a kid we called our midday meal dinner.

It's a brilliant idea. Any country that has a large agricultural industry, i.e. every country, should adopt similar. We need bees to survive, simple as that.

Tonight of all nights they should have been fired up. Instead, with a few exceptions, they had no go in them at all. Howe getting knocked out early may have affected them but no excuses for the lack of effort. Thank god for Jack Crisp.

I honestly can't remember the last time Collingwood played with so little intensity or interest. #AFL #aflHawksPies

He'll have his eyes on the top job. Nothing like a huge lurch to the Christian right to destroy a political party.

Yeah, they may have to. 😁

I think with only 35 representatives in the House of Assembly the options become severely limited. Normally I would suggest some sort of coalition but the third party, the Greens, are only interested in controlling parliaments Australia-wide. Gone are the days when they had integrity.

Good question. I don't have an answer. I think back to some of the great Labor leaders of the past and there is nobody of that ilk in the current party.

06.08.2025 12:04 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

That is too hard to answer. Maybe if Labor changed leader they may present a better option.

I don't think the Governor would allow another election. All I can say as a Labor voter is the people have told the members what they think of Winter and the ALP. The Independents need to keep this in mind when deciding on which way to go. The Greens just want power with their 5 seats.

I think the most recent elections show that is a common feeling.

It's a huge mess but Labor want to make it worse. I'm not a Lib by any means but the lack of stability is going to hurt Tasmania.

Dean Winter is unbelievable. Having forced Tasmania to an early election which resulted in the lowest vote for Labor ever he now wants to try and gain government by using another vote of no confidence. He should listen to the people. They don't want him. #politas #auspol.

Rare white magpie sighted near Melbourne A bird expert says the it appears to have leucism, which affects about one in 30,000 birds and is often confused with albinism.

I spent 5 years on Mornington Island in the Gulf of Carpentaria and the only magpie I ever saw was white. This story is very enlightening to me.

She is just like the last "moderate" to lead the party. Just a puppet for the extreme right.

How to say "I'm an incel" without saying "I'm an incel".

Until they start giving sentences that reflect community standards we will never see a lessening of these offences.

WA man gets time served for sharing child porn on encrypted app A man from the state's south-west who exchanged sexually explicit images of children potentially as young as three on a message app is given a backdated 10-month jail term.

The judge said this sentence was meant to be a deterrent for others but while judges consider 10 months to be appropriate this will just continue. Time for the law to reflect community expectations and not just give these perverts a slap on the wrist.

There were some bright spots. Over the next few weeks we will get Beau and Howe back. Jordy will get stronger and Bobby will get fitter. Lachie Schultz played a great game and there is no way all of our talls will play so badly in the same game again.
