Today is the 50th anniversary of a CIA orchestrated coup against a democratically elected Australian government. That’s exactly what it was, Washington acting to contain a left social democratic government that was starting to threaten vital US intelligence based on Australia soil. Never forget.

Good point: the national informal vote was 5.6. Maybe we should get crudely sketched male genitalia to determine conservative climate policy.
What should be a routine reminder: the national party got 3.8% of the national vote. Tail, meet dog.

Facebook served me a sponsored ad for this tea blend and it is making me twitchy with rage. How very dare they call their tea blend Oxford Comma and then list three ingredients *without an Oxford comma*. The absolute disgrace of it.
They ought to be ashamed, abashed, and mortified.
