Instead of screen grabbing it and showing everyone, why not click the X on the top right of the ad and report it as inappropriate?

Ain't no way I'm putting my finger/cursor anywhere near a dodgy ad tbh

You mean his paintings aren’t really worth $500k??

Personally I don’t think the Dems are that interested in protecting the big guy. They’ll want him to step aside for the next election, problem is they don’t have anyone to replace him with yet. Harris is very unpopular.

Maybe Newsom?

How incestuous that whole world is, Newsoms ex wife Kimberly Guilfoyle is engaged to Donny Jnr..

Californian will get slaughtered.

I reckon the Democrats are more keen on getting Biden over the line against Trump and then replacing him.

They need to keep a lid on all the Hunter corruption stuff to make that happen.

Albeit I suspect events in UKraine will overtake them there.

They would have to hide him away from Trump. Trump would demolish him in a debate worse than he did to Hillary. Biden can’t last more than 5 minutes without losing track, imagine him on a stage with Trump attacking him.

It’s ****en wild to think they’d run him again in his deteriorating state.

My hot take: Main board is fine and many North supporters are too sensitive

Dunno who the real sensitive ones are. That was a pissweak suspension.

I called a poster clint cos they post with the UN clint eastwood.

N series isuzu for me please. View attachment 1762490

Our old Cat 7 was one of those. The places it went...

We followed this bulldozer up a fire break it was making once. We got to the top the dozer turned around and didn't want to go back down the fire break cos it was a mm or two off vertical. Naturally the old truck made it down but we had to get off the back cos we literally couldn't hang on anywhere. Rock climbed our way down to more level ground.

Good times.

Sorry to hear that mate.

It’s awful. My sister is in a similar position. They gave her about a month just over a month ago. It’s really shocking what they go through. She’s not always herself. Smoked a blunt with her about 2 weeks ago, and man did we laugh…and cry. For some reason she’s always found me funny, not that I am, just my personality makes her laugh, she says it’s my honesty even when it’s inappropriate. That’s something I spose, being able to get her to laugh.

She thinks she can hang in till Christmas, she’s a tough bitch, but honestly she only weighs about 40kgs now and I can’t imagine her hanging out that long….only takes her catching a cold or something and that’ll be it.

Hey man. Keep your head up. I'll have one for your sister later.

All very true, but he's going to be the GOP nominee and the polls are showing he's neck and neck with Biden.

There's a substantial segment of the population that believes the charges against him are politically motivated.

These are the ingredients for a serious constitutional crisis and violence on the streets.

Biden and Trump in a dead heat in hypothetical 2024 rematch, poll finds

Trump saw slightly more support from his base than Biden, with 88 percent of registered Republicans selecting Trump versus 83 percent of Democrats choosing Biden.

This is true. But the charges are politicially motivated. He tried to stop the swearing in of the next guy who got elected. Everyone on the US political gravy train is against him because of that. Whatever side of the property party they are on.

I've got a friend who calls Trump a kayfabe fascist. In that he played up to that image (of a wannabe fascist leader) without really believing in it. He thinks the stage is being set for the next guy, whoever that is, to lead the real fascist uprising in the states. Gives it another five years at most. Ie by the next presidential election cycle.

$28bn plan to legalise cannabis revealed

Thousands of Australians have thrown their support behind the move to legalise a widely used street drug, which would rake in billions over the coming years.

"Which would rake in millions ..."

lol.

 

[ferball]

Medicinal only, and we have no sensible driving impairment testing in place. Meaning if you've consumed any form of cannabis within the last 10~ days and then get tested, you're in massive s**t.

FWIW I've been to various car accidents in this area for decades ... very few fatalitiues and very few accidents really. Even less with serious connection to cannabis use. Nimbin is less than 10km by Crow from where I'm typing this.

I know how many people drive around here with at least some cannabis in their system. If it was as bad as alcohol there would be dead people everywhere...

Welcome back.

Its not just albo its the whole mindset. As much as i abhor the sort of ranting and scaremongering dutton, joyce and even sam newman are going on with i cant see any tangable outcomes that will improve aboriginal health and wellbeing. Its just more symbolism and 350mil that could be better spent. A lot of food or wages for more teachers for starters.

Even warren mundine said as much on a radio inverview recently.

Nothing Warren Mundine says is worth listening to. I know Mundines. They consider him the "white sheep" of their family.

He's just another politician.

 

[ferball]

Welcome back.

Thanks mate.

 

[ferball]

Caitlin is a bit nuts (albeit good fun in person) but she nails the media language here.

Wow. Never thought I'd see her posted here.

I kind of agree with a fair bit of what she says (well haven't read any for years) but it always cracks me up that someone can make a living posting about US geopolitics from some cafe in Northcote or Thornbury.

 

[koshari]

Noticed local groceries are high in stock on mushrooms.

The death cap variety appear to be light on though.

 

[ferball]

I realise you have a particular opinion in this area, but assuming it can be proven that it was not "unprovoked", are we also denying it was an invasion?

She also uses the throwaway term "as soon as the war in Ukraine began". Is she implying that it just happened organically?

It was an invasion but it was provoked. I don't see how anyone who has followed the details of that place over the last decade could see it any differently. Its for another thread obviously but I posted documents in that thread from US companies like Stratfor/Rand and their briefings about how provoking Putin could be beneficial for the US by chellenging his economy. They acknowledged the risk with that strategy was that it could result in an invasion of Ukraine.

What about gold tops?

Harris talks Gypsy curses. I ****en love this guy.

For some reason I woke up this morning thinking about the time WallStreetBets went after that hedge fund (Melvin Capital) that shorted GameStop and all the dodgy shit that happened, especially Robinhood letting the hedge fund get out whilst stopping people from buying GME. Melvin went bust but they still got out with a lot of money by bending the rules.

Does anyone know what happened with that? There is a class action suit against Robinhood and a movie was made, but has anyone from Robinhood or Melvin looking at criminal charges?

 

[Val Keating]

I think that GameStop short squeeze was the funnest thing I’ve ever followed on the internet.

lol good one.

 

[Val Keating]

lol good one.

Good one? as in no one will be charged or good one what the plebs did to the Wall Street elite?

 

[danj]

That's the implication as I perceived it.

Dude that makes you sound like an AFL umpire “I perceived the player had…..insufficient intent.”
