@indo , my teeth are slowly deteriorating to the point that the top teeth have fuck all enamel left and the front teeth are getting very thin . So I’m getting a series of crowns and bridges on the top , 10 teeth in all for 30,000,000 rp . Bottom teeth are still good for another 5 years or so . I’ve used this female dentist before when the wife got 4 teeth bridged 9 years ago and no problems . The reviews over the last 10 years are outstanding. 3,000,000 rp per tooth compared to Australia where I was quoted from $1200 to $2500 per tooth . I had the prep work done a few days ago and actually fell asleep 4 times in 3 1/2 hours. Never fallen asleep in dentist chair in my life as I’m usually too tense . Easily the best dentist I’ve been to . See how they are in a few years .

Wow, that’s a bargain. Well done, I would never pay Aussie prices and I encourage many others to simply fly overseas. On par quality at fraction of the price.

Rogan and Trump. This weekend apparently.

Looking forward to this chat. 2 hours + of full crazy with zero fact checking. Should be a beauty of an episode

Ha ha yeah i dig Rogan, but he also spins some shit, him & trump talking about stuff like Covid, lockdowns, vaccination's, health, deep state etc i can see things they say causing some controversy in main stream media.

Rogan is great, I love his podcast. He talks shit sometimes but so do we. He’s not perfect but neither is anyone else. This is why he’s relatable and popular. Trump is smart by going there. He will win some points if he plays nicely.

She is little more than a self seeking opportunist. Just like Musk.

She could go full maga and have another shot at President in the future.

Honestly go listen to some older long in depth interviews with her and then listen to recent interviews too, i think you would change your view if you did.

She is the most genuine politician about, it's no different to when Peter Garret ran with Labor, Politics is about compromise you sometimes have to work with people you would rather not and even compromise on some things to get a little progress in other areas you are passionate about.

Well if Tulsi Gabbard is the most genuine politician around,
that is going to get her absolutely nowhere with MAGA , Fox News , project 2025 etc
The most hypocritical propagandist mob in US political history .
Sounds like you’ve just come back from
Disneyland .

"...All of this suggests that the messaging pivot is a big mistake.

Why voters aren’t responding to messages like these is anyone’s guess, though the fable of the boy who cried wolf comes to mind. Trump was already president. And while Democrats warned about the danger he posed to democracy, we did actually have an election to get rid of him. Remember, the moral of the fable isn’t that, in the end, there wasn’t a wolf. It’s that no one believed the boy.

Moreover, the distaste for the democratic threat message among working people, and the total obliviousness to that distaste among campaign officials, is evidence itself of the huge disconnect between Harris and the working-class voters she desperately needs to win. Worse, every ad or speech spent hectoring about the Trumpian threat is one less opportunity for Harris to focus on her popular economic policies; one less opportunity to lean into a populist “people v plutocrats” narrative that actually does resonate with the working class.

If Harris loses, it’ll be because the campaign and the candidate represent a party that is now fundamentally alien to many working people – a party that has given up on mobilizing working people around shared class frustrations and aspirations. A party incapable of communicating a simple, direct, progressive economic policy agenda. A party so beholden to a contradictory mix of interests that, in the effort to appease everyone and offend no one, top strategists have rolled out a vague, unpopular and uninspiring pitch seemingly designed to help them replay the results of the 2016 election..."

scathing...

but spot on

whether she loses, or wins actually...

Well if sykaphant actually took the time to overcome his misogynistic ignorance, and actually see what Trump is saying
He might know what he’s talking about
But that isn’t going to happen
Your warmongering bigotry streak has been exposed by your admiration of ex military politicians.

How can U laugh Jules , knowing the CDC has McWeaponised this Election and Just sent The Big Mac Crashing 9.5% .

Just because Trump served Kamala Fried Fries , E. coli has apparently appeared in Quarter Pounders and the CDC is investigating , by eating at more outlets .

Taking on The Big Mac and its brother the Q Pounder , is a Bridge 2 Far , in the USA , imho .

It's the End of Civilisation , US Style .
