Lol. Delusional people are sometimes hilarious.

Wonder what they cooked.

Not really political. Just important.

“I don’t have to compete any more,” he says. “It’s Justin Bieber’s time and Rihanna’s time, Drake’s time, let’s just accept it and get on with it, move over. I make an album every year and a half, it’s not an event when I make an album.” Would that more agreeing rock stars have the grace and intelligence of Elton.

Happy birthday!! A Monday, that's cruel ;)

I think this makes somewhere like Lapstone the place to buy. It'll be the new seafront.

Worth re-posting. Why stress is good for you, if you understand it.

Genius. Didn't understand a word, didn't have to. Not sure how it goes with washing the hair.

Ah the Swedes. Why can't they just replace democracy with the market, like everybody else? http://esnoticia.co/noticia-8790-swedens-prostitution-solution-why-hasnt-anyone-tried-this-before

FB is changing the world. http://www.smh.com.au/business/media-and-marketing/six-degrees-of-separation-no-anymore-facebook-says-20160205-gmmi2h.html?&utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=social&eid=socialn:fac-14omn0012-optim-nnn:paid-25062014-social_traffic-all-postprom-nnn-smh-o&campaign_code=nocode&promote_channel=social_facebook

You can see the radio shock jocks here foaming at the mouth about this already, if it were suggested. (Actually some of them think this is what already happens in Australia, that most of the population is apparently already on 'welfare'. But then they're just a bunch of highly overpaid whingers who get paid millions to sit and whinge into a microphone all day. Australians are supposed to hate whingers - it's your patriotic duty people to tell shock jocks to go fuck themselves.) There's lots of very interesting pluses to thinking about this as a serious idea.

This sort of thing gets a laugh in the NRL too. But it's a classic warning sign of something badly wrong and out of sight.

Happy birthday ice cream buddy

All you arachnophobes, look how clever spiders are!

Happy Birthday bassman!

Might look like a bit of a dry topic, but fascinatingly horrifying. The Bush-Blair-Howard war. How they're not charged as criminals for it is amazing. And shows how much you should never trust somebody who thinks government is the enemy - here's a glimpse into what life is like without governance.

Ha :) Genius.

I'm on a mission about gravity. This article says repeatedly that the astronaut is in zero gravity. He isn't, the gravity in orbit is almost exactly the same as on Earth. And water behaves exactly like this here on Earth too - that's why we get rain 'drops'. He's falling. That's all. And the water is too. Like rain drops fall.

Still think Bill Shorten is a sleeper, don't write him off. Australians like dull and boring PMs. Turnbull is the victim of the same boneheads in his own party who crippled parliament under Rudd and Gillard. The "just say no" ultra-conservatives who want to wreck the joint. Now they're saying no to their own leader as well, as they did the last time they got rid of Turnbull. And they're delusional enough to think this means Tony was unfairly booted. Ha, bring him back, electoral carnage awaits him.

I think this is why they sometimes call people with severe brain injury 'vegetables'.

I'm a bit like this. Love animals, not sure I want to 'own' one. Although domestication isn't really trapping, the animals get benefits too. http://gu.com/p/4hxzp?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

Happy birthday! Long time

It's still unpopular to state the obvious in Australia, that the entire economy is a casino financed by mortgages. It won't end well.

In Australia it's more often the other way around. Working with your hands is cool. Doing University-trained stuff is apparently a wank.

Aww man. Let's hope sanity spreads worldwide. http://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article62292437.html

Nobody like him. A true genius.

I'll keep banging on about this one. People are starting to wake up (boom boom).

Had no idea he was such a gifted comedian. Loved the bit just after 2:20 where he talks about the chair, exquisite comic timing.

Girl. n. Person who closes all air vents in a vehicle.

Happy birthday Ian!!
