I adopted a dog from the RSPCA in my early 30s. It snowballed, starting with volunteering for rescue groups and now I'm living out on a farmlet surrounded by rescue animals.

Good on you/her.

It is so soul destroying to have to eat a normal sized breakfast buffet these days. Stupid middle aged digestive system...

I once read that the top 40 album charts had to adjust it's algorithm to stop Dark Side Of The Moon appearing years after it's release date.

Brilliant Album.

As i gather, JP will not contest the NT senate again.

BTW- the ABC credited Saturday Paper with breaking this story based on an off the record statement from a Lib MP.

It's embarrassing being a guy sometimes.

Fucking incels.

Insta's document-upload functionality is a sham, as far as i have seen. They claim to have a human viewing each document, but the experience of the social media person of various companies that I've worked at say it's BS.

Agree. They aren't even pretending to care about the disaffected this term.

Been wondering for years how this will end. The ALP are so well entrenched in power, even the most credulous rusty will have realised by now that they have no intention of dealing with poverty.

What happened to the Romanovs and why couldn't it happen here...

This morning, read a couple of European telco industry essays on the fanfare and felt obliged to comment that everyone over here with a brain thinks it's a farce.

Some people overseas are seeing it a serious and ground breaking. FMD

Around 60 pc of world oil powers car use, which can easily be electrified.

Boats and heavy vehicles are getting there.

So that orange baby is waging a war over supplies that will probably never be used.

The plot from Boys From Brazil always springs to mind when I read stuff like this.

I can't elaborate without spoilers, but it's a great easy read - the movie is pretty good too - and covers the parental aspects of needy megalomaniacs quite well.

You meant "stiff, sore & bruised today but functional & fucking awesome" right?

I read Portnoy's Complaint when I was 7 or 8, as nearly every adult I knew had a copy.

It went way over my head, but there was this element of "aren't we cool, it's not allowed" about it.

Wondering if social media will go that way.

Indeed.

Politicians are adept at saying what politicians at other levels haven't done, but ask them what they have done...

I have a carnivore friend who went vegan when he was competing - he did it because he could eat insane amounts of protein without feeling like he'd swallowed a tire.

All body builders should at least try it.

Yeah "for the animals" is the best.

All the other reasons just lead to long and exhausting debates.

Plus - isn't for the animals enough? 😀

I'm sure she feels drained by all this attention.
