- Comment on Australian World Cup referee Shaun Evans responds to accusations he used a hate symbol at World Cup 1 week ago:
There was a PSA in the 70s or 80s where the people in the the ads would flash the OK symbol at each other after doing something, like just helping someone carry their groceries or something like that. I don’t think it’s the do the right thing PSAs. Does anyone remember something like this and what it was for?

- Comment on Do not chase the pigeons 1 week ago:
You’re welcome. This poster was on the back of a phone box in Rundle Mall. I’m sure the poster is a bit of fun street art and not something the council put up.
Interestingly each year about 10,000 to 12,000 tree martins roost in a small group of trees in Rundle Mall over Summer/Autumn. I thought they’d have migrated elswhere by now but they are still around. It’s an amazing sight to walk under the trees in the middle of a city pedestrian mall, and see thousands of little birds chilling out at night. If you search Adelaide tree martins there’s a few photos and videos out there.

When I google cybertongue I am disappointed to only find images of their technology and not something inappropriate.

It makes no sense that anyone opposed to public institutions can be elected to manage public institutions or be employed by them.

- Comment on VicPol at the NDIS rally yesterday afternoon 1 month ago:
Participants at the letter writing campaign in Adelaide yesterday were abused by state library security and others despite organising beforehand and having permission to use the space they were in. I heard reports from a participant that it was quite clearly anti-disability bigotry.

- Comment on U.S. Pushes Allies to Chase a New Terrorism Target: The Far Left 2 months ago:
The Democratic Socialists has had many socialist and anti-capitalist activists and groups in it since Bernie’s run for president. There are also still activists and groups doing their own thing independent of the democratic party. The Greens are still around, have adopted an ecosocialist platform and have a considerable number of registered voters. That being said I think their members’ political leaning and activity varies wildly from place to place and the momentum is with the Democratic Socialists these days.

- Comment on Israel said it targeted Hezbollah, so we went to the site of a strike 2 months ago:
I was going to reply to them but they’re just trolling. Even replying to them sarcastically gives them exactly what they want, for the rest of us to waste our time and exhaust ourselves.

In case your question isn’t rhetorical I found this Anthony Albanese confirms Australian navy personnel on US submarine that sank Iranian vessel:
Dozens of Australian personnel have been rotating through placements on US fast-attack submarines based out of Pearl Harbour in preparation for Australia acquiring its own nuclear-powered submarines under the AUKUS agreement.
I think it’s also related to Force Posture.
