"Calling a man ‘bald’ is sexual harassment, employment tribunal rules"

Never a dull moment.
The West - killing itself with its own stupidity.
It would be hilarious if you weren't smack in the middle of it, and bound to go down the gurgler too.
Exactly I.B.
Gonna get exponentially sillier and more difficult to navigate too, I reckon.
I know that it's become almost a joke, or a reference to gag on, but 1984 does spring to mind again and again - as it has the last two years.
The dystopian bit is deadly serious, but often you just have to half laugh, half cry, at the sheer madness of it. As GO said "It's a beautiful thing, the destruction of words."
Everything has been turned upside down, inside out, and we all know it. All the woke loonies know it full well, yet keep coming up with more insane stuff, like the Guardian article above.
WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY and IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
Yeah it’s mad, we’re in a post-truth world where people are free to reject objective facts and ignore definitions for objects and words.
Tribes are choosing their own truth based on ideology alone and it’s already at the point where we have no common ground for discussion.
Fucked up.
Wow ,, sexual harassment for calling someone a 'bald c@#&' .?
I hope my neighbour doesn't read about this. I could be up for quite a bill.

Hard to understand why he is in bed with the Saudi’s. He doesn’t need the money, maybe the adulation and ego stroking is being missed?
He is gooooone from now. Forever a toxic apologist.

Here's an interview from everyones favourite tech billionaire
https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2022/may/15/bill-gates-vaccines-read...
Bill Gates…..ugghh.
Billionaires should outlawed. He was specifically asked a question about that and he was surprisingly unstoked on the idea.
Although he explicitly said that rich people should pay more tax.
That’s what he said. Is he then volunteering 49% of his earnings in order to display that his virtue is more than just skin deep?
Or does he employ the imperative of the super rich and decide that his contributions to society are “philanthropy “ and to be disposed at his personal whim?
Wouldn’t we all like to legally evade regular taxation and be loudly praised for spending whatever subsequent amount we chose on whichever pet project we found amusing? Particularly if that expenditure allowed us a controlling I influence on society despite the resultant diminution of democracy which may occur.
Billionaires are just like us you know.
If I was a billionaire I would not be anything like you or I.
I’d have have someone even suggesting as much assassinated by a satellite shooting laser beams with the raising of an eyebrow to one of my subordinates.
Gates is quite a big douche.....he does a lot of good but...epstein
"Wouldn’t we all like to legally evade regular taxation and be loudly praised for spending whatever subsequent amount we chose on whichever pet project we found amusing?

Yes please.

That was a very good link Patrick. Worked in every area mentioned in the program so pretty personal feelings, especially after long treks in the Tarkine.
And yet, the potential for Australia in a carbon 0 world, and geopolitically, is immense. What a time. I'd say go for it, but all Tarkine into World Heritage.

Yeah I saw her review the other day. Brilliant :-)
That was a lovely review. I suspect soulless superficial rat humans might be the answer.

Shows like that must be designed for people to hate watch.
There’s simply no other explanation.

Classic. Just like sand through the hour glass. These are the days of our lives. Fragments of time.
Conspiracies, cults and phones. Onwards we plod waiting to be fed. Simple interest's forgotten, and the endless need to consume, to be and influence. Role models be gone. I and nothing more. Self interest is truth. Did you get it? 1000 likes and forgotten by next week.
Oh the memories of a simpler less self indulgent time gone by. Now all consuming in the need to be remembered, liked and to have the all ready saturated mind filled once more. Like an ever flowing stream, the flow is relentless. just like sands through the hour glass these are the days of our lives.
Hey Rob, the simpler time is still here, pick up board, get to surf, go out and surf, the thinking becomes the breathing, the momentum on the energy, it's all still here.
We would not be hearing this sense of entitlement had the pharmaceutical corporations been enabled in their greed by the ludicrous mandating of vaccination against covid.
Modern fascism is old racism reborn under the imperative of corporate profiteering.

I assume you're talking about this, which took place in 2018, before the pandemic.

Always pays to be wary of the grievance peddlers.

Indeed it is. Just harder to find with out reminders of the rat race. I'm just an old romantic reminiscing past loves gone by. Superseded by soulless tech merchants. No hard feelings just beautiful memories. Times a changing it's the devil I know. Take care of paradise where ever you may find it.

Nope. This was said last week.

Thanks Rob. You nailed it. It’s that simple. Did it again myself this very day actually. Cheers mate. Love your tunes contributions by the way. Keep them coming….

Ok, fair enough, how ever, this technology was not born of the pandemic it was around before then, its intended purpose was for anti-psychotic medicines, the usefulness of this should be obvious for this purpose.
Another Byron review of sorts

How lucky was this prawn trawler trying to cross the bar at Mooloolaba recently.
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-05-18/mooloolaba-sandbank-too-dangerous...
Pretty bad at the moment hey. Ongoing problem. Proposal to extend eastern groyne by 60 metres. Will this fix it? Wonder if it is extended if more sand will build up at Carties eliminating the mushburger effect.
A decade ago had a couple of fun novelty surfs across the mouth dodging the water police that were shooing off surfers. Was so shallow. Take off behind the groyne and race across the river mouth. Was thigh deep in the middle of the mouth.
https://www.sunshinecoastnews.com.au/2022/05/11/fears-grow-over-deadly-h...
I heard it was getting pretty ordinary up there on the bar. Haven't seen that clip though, good job getting off the sand in quick time.
I also heard the commercial fishos dumped a shit load of sand in the local Maritime office driveway as a protest. Classic.
Have it cunts
