Believer in human rights, equality and fairness. I mask as I do not want to contract airborne pathogens nor spread them to others. The world would be a better place if more people minded their own business. DM's will be blocked.

All countries need to ban starlink.
Aside from Musk using it as a weapon (i.e. withholding it from Ukraine once they become reliant on it), there is the added factor of cybersecurity.
Who would trust Musk?

It is the same at my wife's work.
Oh - except for her.
The fact she is the only masker is surely just a coincidence.

If you claim to be christian. You wouldn't be protecting rapists and paedophiles.
Unless. You are one yourself.

Dunno about fear.
I wear a mask for the same reason I wash my hands after going to the toilet.
Pure and simple.

Does the NACC have any hope of regaining public trust?

Good article by @nickfeik.bsky.social

Does the NACC have any hope of regaining public trust?

The NACC has over two hundred employees and an annual budget of over $60m, but has yet to land a single major finding from over 5,000 referrals.

Not whilst Brereton is involved with it in any capacity.
We need someone credible to head the organisation.

Yup - as an international tourist - why would I want to put myself at risk by visiting such a country?
Canada is looking a lot safer.

What was the outcome of the investigation.
In all fairness - if he was found innocent - then his bill should be covered.
If not - perhaps locked up?

I thought I was looking at Gaza for a second.

I feel as if our dog is being discriminated against!

Misogynistic men have a form of small penis syndrome whereby they are so insecure that they feel the need to put women down in order to try and lift themselves up.
Inevitably they fail.
I would not be surprised if misogynists also tend to be racist, homophobic etc.... for the same reason.

Shame on you.

The act of paedophilia is so repugnant that anyone who supports a paedophile is themselves suspect.

Affects males to some degree as well (me).

So the oligarchs are mindlessly accumulating more and more wealth.
What happens when they have it all and we have nothing?

Don't forget he will have insurance. They can pay a substantial portion of the fine.
Of course his premiums will go through the roof after that.
Not shedding any tears for him though.

immune system such that she is now susceptible to everything that is going around.

I have been masking since covid started and managed to not catch it until 4 months ago when I let my guard down.
I noticed a cognitive decline after the infection.
I have redoubled my masking efforts as I do not want to suffer any more post covid effects.
My wife also caught it - it weakened her

Yoiu have pretty much described the Athenian model of democratic government.
No professional politicians.
The senators were chosen by lot from citizens and served a fixed term.

The cease fire lasted less than a week before Israel broke it.
Why am I not surprised?

‘You cease, I fire’: Israel kills 9 Palestinians despite Gaza truce

Israeli army confirmed it opened fire saying a group of people approached soldiers before being targeted.

Totally agree.

Portland has held the line with grit and heart.
