Representative of inherited power, representing a church created to let a previous leader change wives, meets leader of a fantasy belief that dominates the world and inspires cults, meet in a place in Italy, but not really Italy. I don't give a f'

Did you know that most of what has been written about Christ, Mohammad and even Atilla the Hun were all written more than 100 years, even 300 years after they died? When you think, things that happened last week are already full of error, misinformation and disinformation. Why would you believe?

You Know Trump does not give a F--k about lying. Unlike other politicians where there lies are often buried in complex details, Trump just says what he would like to be true, and they are often disproven by indisputable facts. He says Biden appointed the current Federal reserve head, it was Trump

Why did Trump not rename the "department of defence" to "department of Peace" rather than "department of war". It may have been a trump card for the Nobel 😂 Actually "department of peace" is not authoritarian enough.

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” George Santayana. It does not need to even be your past. The naive may even be at greater risk. How well does the U.S. understand the history of Fascism and Authoritarianism? It seems they are ignorant and letting it happen.

In Australia it is illegal not to pay someone for work done and except for cases of criminal activity you can't simply fire someone without paying notice. Also a business and the government can be sued for unfair dismissal. If a position is made redundant extensive retrenchment rules apply.

If the Australian Coalition decides to back down on current Australian carbon emission targets, or even dump them all together, I will be working hard to keep them in "the wilderness" until they come back from there.

No matter how bad your enemy is, how atrocious their behaviour, how cruel their actions. Never say they are not human, because that is when you loose your humanity. As soon as you deny someone's humanity you are capable of the worst of crimes.

Although I have a Spotify account I am concerned that artists are not being treated fairly. However after recently following artists and albums I really like I realised I already own 95% of these albums which has reduced my guilt. now I need to find how to direct money to newer artists I like.

This will change everything. Is an example of click bait, no matter how genuine the content it represents. As a rule I avoid any such content. I don't want to encourage it. When it comes from the same source too often, I will unsubscribe. There are statistics suggesting many others are also doing it

I am currently thinking about the role of emotions in public discourse. I am thinking in most cases where emotional communication is used, that it may be inappropriate. Perhaps it has its place along side rational and factual communications, but perhaps not on its own 🤔, Why? I will post later.

I have noticed there is one use for all this BS coming from Tump and his minions, you can use it to identify reliable news sources. Those who don't buy into the falsehoods and in fact give evidence they are wrong, reenforce they are reliable.

Today I took a photo of the sticker that indicates my cars tyre pressures under different loads. Loaded it into ChatGPT, added details about the scales on my pressure pump, a little reality check and I have myself a new table in psi which is what the Service Station Pumps and my pump use.

There are indications that Autism has Genetic contributors. Surely we need to ask if the parents of Autistic children may be on the spectrum themself? Could this be why some have trouble letting go of these (false) conspiracy theories? I think this could be a good subject for a study.

Vance complaining the left calls them Nazis (I never heard that) when Trump repeatedly calls the left terrorists (I hear that a lot). What does calling someone a terrorist supposed to mean? That they are mass killing innocent civilians? Bombing Buildings, and armed rebellion? I am confused.

Apparently in February Putin's minions targeted the protective shield around Chernobyl. There is no valid reason to do this even when at war. Its just bad, and seems to me sufficient to call it a war crime.

I have started to embark on my first attempt to write a book, non-fiction in the personal productivity Genre. I am looking for a community so please let me know if you know one. In the mean time I am building a tool to assist with book writing and want to know what is needed.

Fortunately we are seeing nations around the world starting to openly contradict so many of Trump's claims from vacation to climate change. Listening to one of Trump's monologues must be excruciating, full of self aggrandizing statements, opinions with no facts, more than 3 years to go 😞

Watching a Doco about Freddy Mercury, of Queen. The thought occurred to me if I had a time machine, would I return with retroviral drugs? He was such a loss to the world in my view.

The phrase “a legend in his own mind” refers to someone who thinks they’re much more impressive, important or heroic than they actually are. It implies a kind of self-delusion or overestimation.

I think they are targeting Tylenol/Panadol so RFK Jnr can claim he solved the Autism problem, because what he thought caused it was bullshit, even never true. It is a face saving exercise. Not only do we not have evidence that vaccines cause Autism we have evidence that such claims are false.

It is very common in Australia not to politicise the death of someone even a murder of a politician. This is for many reasons, not least so as not to inspire others to copy cat. Fact is, it is not illegal to criticise or celebrate someone's death, although it is in bad taste and I would never.

Where in the world is Tones? Sorry I have not updated my location recently. I am now at "La Source", my 100 acres on the Southern Table Lands, not far from the historical village of Braidwood. As a result I will visit Canberra a few times. The Black Wattle is in flower.

Trump has just said he will hate who ever assassinated Charlie Kirk. Does he know hate is what led to the shot? He then goes on to say its a left wing thing, when the statistics show his side of politics are more often the shooter. Now counterfactuals, lies, are getting serious.

We do not need to prove someone is a dictator, only demonstrate they do things like a dictator. vilifying the opposition, suppress their voices, threaten financial ruin or jail, bypass democratic processes, reward supporters with graft stolen by manipulating markets. open your eyes.

I am looking to write my first book, a non fiction in the personal productivity and thinking tools genre. I have built a software platform to help me, I may open source it in time but I still have a lot to learn, so I am putting it out there to see if I can find a village to help each other.

I continue to listen to the fall of the U.S. every day. I think it's time we, Australia and other nations start to distance ourselves from the U.S. when the president is shuttingdown media who does support him, like yes men, you can be sure that soon we will only get sanitised news. RIP U.S.

Listening to an informal representative of Israel spouting propaganda, that contradicts all other sources of information. Anything that suggests Israel is in the wrong he cries "propaganda". I find such interviews as less than boring, they are predictable counter factuals.

All Trump needs to do when asked a difficult question is to answer, or ignore if he must, but no, he threatens people. He expects people to simply not ask difficult questions and only say things that tickle his ego. What a D--khead. Trump has no understanding of the role of the 4th estate.

Trump's attacks on science and defunding is akin to China's cultural revolution. How to destroy value as fast as possible is also the path to economic failure. Trump's and the Republican ignorance and disregard for rationality is only matched by their maliciousness. RIP U.S.

It is now almost daily I hear of irrational actions, decisions and the movement away from democracy in the United States. I am afraid it is too intense, no insane, so don't be surprised if I ignore that shit. I will just fight this shit in Australia.

When publishing on the internet, the old maxim was "content, content, content". Then once someone engaged with your content you got to promote your ideas and products. The Problem with so called A.I's instead answering, is users need never visit your content.

Legitimate Concerns?

Eve's Byte of the Apple - Sandi Toksvig The failure to ensure diversity is to give an unrepresentative set of people steal control.

Be woke, stay awake, see what is so. People who use the word "woke" to describe someone are usually trying to stop people speaking truths. If you stop trying to improve equity, you are trying to increase inequity. The equality of opportunity is a minimum requirement for Justice.

Has anyone noticed that is the last week or so relating to Iran Donald Trump has said at least half a dozen things which where contradicted hours or a few days later? At least at a distance I don't hear many people questioning the fact that what he says is unreliable. Are they making excuses?

Some recent commentary from Tim for any side of the debates we face.

A simple idea that could save your life and help you to be found

I think we should be very concerned about Israel demonstrating targeting specific individuals in Iran, because it suggests a game changer in military capabilities, or at least the presence of thousands of spies on the ground. what if they came to your place?

A seagull enters a store, grabs a sandwich of its choice and left. That's it. That's the story. 😂🥰🤩 #birds #grabandrun

Trump operates is through fear, his opposition, international trade, but even fellow republicans. A dictatorial approach to leadership starts with sacking everyone who does not agree with you, threaten anyone else. We call this "surrounding yourself with Yes men" (women).

I love Elle's work

The shear number of events and actions by Trump that resemble those of dictators (see history) really looks overwhelming. So many in fact, that it is hard to point to any one where the people of the U.S. should draw a line. So many lines should be drawn, that are not. Scary shit.

Let us consider if a man can have more than one wife, then surely it is fair, that each of his wives can have more than one husband?

I saw and photographed a Murder today 🤓

what is a Meanderthal? Any human who creates or follows a track that they prefer over a taking a suggested path. Good design can reduce the occurrence of Meanderthal trails but not eliminate.

Are you in a drought area?, if so just arrange me to House sit then when I hang my clothes on the line it will rain. Based on my last few weeks of observations Your results may vary

How to be woke, in one simple step. In the presence of someone from the ridiculous right. Say something that does not agree with their worldview, they just unthinkingly do, what there fellow ideologues do. Either way they don't want to discuss it any further, they may need to change their mind.
