My 2 favourite books are "The Last Valley" by Martin Windrow and "A Savage War of Peace: Algeria 1954-1962 by Alistair Horne. Keen interest in history of Northern Ireland during the Troubles, Falklands war and the battle of Rourke's Drift.

Noting that polls are snapshots not predictions, this #Redbridge/Accent poll looks disastrous for the non-Labor side of politics.

This is neoliberal capitalism working as intended, yet the Labour party in government throw their hands in the air saying "We've tried nothing and we're out of ideas".

Gonna need a *lot* of batteries to get rid of that 4400MW of brown coal.

Just blocked Wil Wheaton for being a centrist shill for the rusted on Dems. Any excuse to avoid doing anything vaguely progressive. No wonder American politics is fkd.

Big centrist brain bullshit from Will, which is disappointing but not surprising.

Centrist Dems want progressives to vote for them, lose to the Republican and then blame the progressives for losing.

Adding the label as a note helps to identify each place.

Brown coal generating 4400MW might have something to do with it. Plenty of hydro & wind and even some solar after 6PM.

How can I create a route from numerous locations I have saved in โ€œyour listsโ€ (saved lists)?? - Google Maps Community

Route planning from a list of place in Google Maps can be made a bit simpler by labeling each location.

American capitalism is deliberately designed to stifle solidarity amongst the working class, that's the only way the system can survive. The system can't handle white workers defending their black & brown colleagues & neighbours.

Why is anyone surprised that the men of the Liberal and National party are treating Sussan Ley like shit? Have you not paid any attention to Australian politics the last 20 years?
