There is circulating information about new rules slated for passage in Victoria, Australia, that would allegedly make it a crime to grow food at home.
Premier Dan Andrews, who repeatedly flaunted his true fascist colors throughout the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) plandemic, is said to be behind a new amendment to the agriculture code that threatens to criminalize self-sufficiency.

Isn’t it interesting how the issue of COVID largely disappeared before this election?
For days now in SE Queensland, it has been cloudy, rainy and largely windless. No sun electrifies the solar panels, intermittent winds play with the prayer wheels, and backup batteries are going flat. For a while on some afternoons, wind and solar produce a trickle of power. Gas and hydro try to help, but none of these can bear the whole power supply load.
The music that my parents listened to was romantic and offered hope and expectation of a brighter future. My music was philosophical, questioning and indignant in many cases.
My daughters' music was jaunty, upbeat, and happy. The modern music? It isn't even music. It is just a cacophony of sound. Angry, confused and disjointed.
Much like the world we occupy today.

It’s about time we Americans remembered we are supposed to govern our own lives.
While feminists and left-wing activists nationwide decry the leaked Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision draft as an attack on women’s rights, the real issue is not about women or even about abortion. What happens next with Roe v. Wade could help steer the US back toward what the founding fathers intended – a Court that keeps majoritarianism in check as it upholds the Constitution.

Since the days of Joseph in ancient Egypt, droughts have periodically rationed water and food supplies for humans and wildlife. Sensible peoples store water, but it is about 40 years since Australians built a big dam – young Aussie engineers have no damn experience.
Even beavers build dams and weirs to provide long-term wetlands and food supplies along rivers. Dams also moderate floods downstream.
Please read this before you vote. Vote One Nation, UAP, any minor party - just don't vote for more of the same. Or Australia, as we have known it, will disappear forever. And we will have been responsible for the bullet that killed her.
This is the most important election of our lifetimes. Remember this: our votes were protected by those who died to protect them. Let's not let ourselves down and let us not let them down.
" Lest We Forget " has never been more important.

A 31-year-old disabled woman in Toronto, Canada, is nearing final approval for an assisted suicide after her efforts to find housing appropriate for her disability were unsuccessful.
The woman, identified in media reports by the pseudonym Denise, suffers from multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS) where common chemicals such as cigarette smoke, air fresheners and laundry chemicals can trigger rashes, breathing difficulties and severe headaches. Since Denise has been unable to afford appropriate housing that does not aggravate her illness, she has sought to end her life by assisted suicide.

Donald Henderson, who died in 2016, was a giant in the field of epidemiology and public health. He was also a man whose prophetic warnings from 2006 we chose to ignore in March of 2020.
Dr. Henderson directed a ten-year international effort from 1967–1977 that successfully eradicated smallpox. Following this, he served as Dean of the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health from 1977 to 1990. Toward the end of his career, Henderson worked on national programs for public health preparedness and response following biological attacks and national disasters.
It is becoming obvious to many people now that the US and NATO are deliberately pushing Russia into global thermonuclear war. In classic game theory, you might imagine two scorpions in a jar, each capable of killing the other, but not before the other one can strike back, effectively killing them both. I prefer to use the analogy of two cowboys in a saloon, each with a loaded gun pointed to the head of the other. Once the USA / NATO cowboy declares that their goal is the complete destruction of Russia and that there is no common ground and no restoration of geopolitical recognition of Russia’s right to exist, it is in the interests of Russia to shoot first (and hope it can dodge the return fire).
