7.3 earthquake off Japanese east coast a couple of hours ago. 7.3 is BIG.
Watching the (small) tsunami arrive at Miyagi and Fukushima coasts in real time on SBS.

South Korea hit by huge Covid wave of cases. More than 400,000 new cases each day.

I was wrong about NATO forces already being in Lviv. NATO denies sending troops in and I’m inclined to believe them.

USA has already sent more than $1 billion in weapons to Ukraine, and has just approved another $800 million of weapons exports. So presumably that’s what the Russian concern is in Lviv. The Lviv airport is of very major military importance now that the Kiev airport is not available.

Russia has had half its money stolen (technically, “frozen”), and is being pressured to pay another $110 million today.

I read that the other day, something we’ve discussed here
Could be a good platform to get into parliament as an independent.
All politicians subject to psychological testing when they first get the job and each new election if they win.

In fact are leaders who authorise an invasion knowing large numbers of people will die mentally sound.
You usually hear its in the security interests for our nation as the excuse and the death and destruction is OK because its not us.
Its seemingly acceptable at a state level but punished if you are a individual.
Little remorse if any seems to be felt by them when civilians in said country are killed and it often considered sedition if its revealed by other parties.

Correct me if I’m wrong but I think that’s a line from the Scottish Play in reference to Macduck.

Oh NO!!!!!

The L/NP would do better if they dumped ScoMo, and made the cat PM.

And the cat would do a better job.

Win/win.

It must be such any easy job on ScoMo’s PR team.

Troll about the internet, look at what someone (anyone!) else has done, and set ScoMo up to do a rip-off of it.
