He is sweating like he's standing on the equator, not in a plane. Very strange.

I am usually devoid of religious empathy of any type, but I just have to say that hearing Ave Maria sung at tonight's concert to celebrate the restoration of Notre Dame gives me goosebumps. Beautiful 😍

So, let me get this right. Lots of countries are offering help to Myanmar. I do wonder if there will be conditions attached, but that's not my main cconcern. This is:

So, JD has another thing in common with Trump: zero knowledge of broad US history, hidden behind a selective understanding of events they obviously didn't learn about at school.
Here's the history: jyllands-posten.dk/indland/ECE1...

In Australia, we just call him an effing loser.

Yes, of course, because Aryan dreams include blonde hair.

Hang on, does this microscopic wonder mean they're expecting an immaculate conception? No Bethlehem or donkeys or inns?
Elon knows about IVF. He might be able to advise.
Macroscopically, it's still delusional nonsense.

Bendigo or NAB. I chair a small charity that had $200k CBA share portfolio when I came along. It had lost $23k in 6 yrs. Met rude disinterested staff when I queried some things. Put all into Fixed Terms with Bendigo, making more, easy to manage, great app. Swapped my own banking to them & National.

Isn't it fascinating how so many criminals are in orange?

One of my closest friends is Turkish by birth. Apart from her commitment to women's rights (which is shared by her Turkish born husband) she is usually the most unpolitical person I know. We don't know the story behind Rumeysa but this news has stunned & scared my friend & her daughters. Let's hope.

Gosh, they look nothing like anything operational at all, do they?
What if we substituted something like, oh, I don't know: a major vehicle retailer for Houthi on each mention?
They might think it was operational then.

Once upon a time in a country far away, people gathered at the village square to share gossip & get news. Now we have memes.
This one is brilliant 👏

This made me laugh myself silly 🤣

Australian friends who haven't seen this on other posts: petition to Parliament to withdraw invitation to Trump to visit us. Please sign and share. www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/...

Thank you! I've been at meetings on and off all day today. I left home at 715am so I couldn't set this up myself. It's 8.15pm in WA & I'm home & exhausted but this has made my day

This is witchcraft. I thought the States had rules about that.

I think we need a very, very big petition. Other convicted criminals can't get in. This one is against many of the privileges of an equitable society that we hold dear & have fought for. The people don't want him or his lackeys here.
Who's going to start it?

I can't help thinking about all of the work that went into deciphering Enigma codes in WW2 when all they had to do was listen in on Nazi chat.
Oh. They did.

😂😂😂

Just wondering how I invite Tulsi Gabbard to a Signal chat cos I used to teach International Relations & I know a bit about security & I love Samoan food, so maybe we can swap ideas & recipes & emojis & have a bit of a laugh.

I remember my dad and just about every farmer in WA shooting these beautiful creatures.
There's a pair living near a lake on the road I travel to the coast. I look for them every day. Gorgeous 😍

My snowbird friends sold their cabin in the States months ago & refuse to set foot over the border. They've become full time Canadians again.

Being as my work involves seeing statistics in this area as well as the outcomes of violence, I'm not surprised.

I have a 1st cousin in Texas who carries & a 2nd cousin in Florida who's in her late 70s & doesn't leave home without her hot pink gun. She has three. Different world. Dad's brothers were competition shooters, so we grew up used to them, taught to shoot from young. My kids have never touched one.

I wonder if being called a Nazi might make him stop for a minute & think about what he's become. I'm sure it would stop the everyday person of Jewish descent.

He talked about his mother in law, Geri Lambert. She lives in his mansion. I can't imagine she goes hungry without her pension. I also doubt she cleans, cooks or does laundry. There are people to do that. She may not even know what it is to feel old & worn out. There are people to fix that too.

Wow. Crossbows are legal in Qld here. You might get a permit in West Aust for archery comps, but only a few do that. Grenades? 😆 We can't even have fireworks! Howitzers?? That would take the fun out of shooting bunnies 😂 I used to sport-shoot but no more. Most ppl here have never held a weapon.

Yes, but I've seen my brother mess up a few feral pigs without one. Anything with a magazine can do damage faster than the average pig - or human - can run. Farmers need guns, then there's sport. I've no issue with hunting feral animals. But, most male suicides here are by gun. Unsure of solution.

I'm going to have to start learning the language, or at least the swearing part 😅
