Just another derelict wailing across the bounds of humanity. An Extra looking for answers for the crimes of the past from the crims of the future. Ex-surfer, ex-climber, ex-worker, ex-warrior. Philosopher, fool, anarchist with a social conscience. A democrat no longer. A questioner in search of a reasonable answer. b. 1963 d.
Blind to lead the Blind

Blind to lead the Blind

So, its official, the neo-lib New Guard believe the Dickhead from Dickson is going to lead the good Aussie kids into the future. Not my kids he ain’t! It’ll be over my dead body and I’d hope there will be many more who feel the same way. How a man such as this can possibly be touted as a ‘leader of the future’ – of Australia! – is incomprehensible. It just shows how much disrespect this current band of draconian…

A Wake up call for Australian Complacents

A Wake up call for Australian Complacents

Pistol Pete the leader of the neo-liberal Nationals. I say it cannot happen.. cannot! It would however be just the ticket to strike fear into the complacent Mars travelling juniors of Australia. For me it means death or extreme joy. Can you imagine the electorate of Dickson running the country? It already feels like they are.. I suppose thats demockracy? What, percentage wise, does Dirty Dutton hold his throne of Dickson by? 1.6%? 1.6%! Can we assume, that – like…

Just Good Economics.

Just Good Economics.

“I am your King. I am Judge of what is best for Me. I will go my own way. I desire your assistance in it.” – James I, to his ‘Parliament’. Lord I’m having an anuerism.. & a damned heart attack. This government needs to be stopped, it’s appalling. Even with your heads buried deep into the gold dust you have to feel the slope a sliding… Today we have a neo-liberal senator – a representative – advocating an end…

Virtual Contempt

Virtual Contempt

This closing of the Centrelink office in Roma leaves thousands of people democratically stranded. Disenfranchised. From Dalby to Charleville no government office. No place where a person can go for information, to complain.. whatever. Same to the north, hundreds of kms to Emerald. Thats quite a swathe of Australia. Quite a swathe denied the right to a face to face confrontation with ‘the government’. They dont do ‘face to face’ anymore the minister says and due to the fabulous advance…

Pete’s not a fascist.. ?

Pete’s not a fascist.. ?

“Duttons right to dismiss this claptrap.” .. ah this may be true but its no credit to him. He isnt shall we say, cerebral enough to be a fascist. Fascism has ideals. Pete’s just an old fashioned reactionary. A Bjelke-Petersen cop, and a bully. Good traits to have for a fascist. The real fascists, those with ideals, in this band of muppets we are unfortunate to have to call our government, are the Tudges and the Porters and the Cashs…

Build my Burnin’ Ladder.. make my Journey Sadder,

Build my Burnin’ Ladder.. make my Journey Sadder,

..save me from your Mansions in the Sky! Early this morning I had to watch a group of Yellow Throat Miners tear apart a Grey Crowned Babbler… terrible things to have to watch. Yesterday evening I’d noticed a lone Grey Crown skipping through a tree beside my camp. They are rare and they are rarely alone. He was mewing plaintively, there were other Grey Crowns about but they appear to have excluded him. The birds are pairing now so males…

Let’s Talk Cuddly Soft

Let’s Talk Cuddly Soft

A new website! U Can Talk.. RUOK? Apparently these socially uplifting sort of sites do us a world of good. A world of good? My arse. Why is it that these social uplifters always want to link suicide to mental health? If we Can Talk, then its time to broaden the whole topic and for the uplifters to realise that for some, suicide is a Right of Life. For some of us, regardless wether you think we are deranged, our…

Integrity, self-reporting & legal theft.

Integrity, self-reporting & legal theft.

Ah, poor Barney the Dunce now he’s all up in arms because of a hint, a whiff that his self-reporting of ‘travel expenses’ could be a bit iffy. A bit! Well, he’s claimed $16k expenses for him and his girlfriend. $16k ‘travel expenses’ for him and his girlfriend.. at our expense, but for our own good and most definitely in our, Australia’s, interest – he says. Self reporting. An employee of the people is allowed to do that. The people…

Utopia? Say what?

Utopia? Say what?

Young man with dreams, imagine this, you’re sitting on a bus pissing down with rain, human shit all over the place – smells, bits of rubbish, a big wad of chewing gum plastered to the seat in front of you. Peak hour. The old guy in the seat behind you leans forward and says, “On Queensland ABC the other night there was an interview with some uni students, they we asked about their visions of the future, say in 50yrs…

Compassion a la Dickson.

Compassion a la Dickson.

  Oh lord, now this cretin tells us that if we help 20 people we could kill a million. Well we could do with a million less… But if there are 20 people who need our help and we know it – then we should help them. He also says that only a month ago “We” stopped another 130 odd people from the hope of a better life! We did? Why don’t we know, why aren’t we being informed of…
