Tasmania are you even real!?
Tasman Arch in Tasmania. Beautiful rocks shaped in an arch with a gorgeous ocean underneath and a tiny tiny kayak going through it.

Tasmania day two.
Bushland in Tasmania. Blue sky with fluffy clouds, trees,grasses. Sunlight pushes through a gum tree near a river in Tasmania. A steep street, old building and the sun behind a cloud. Autumn gardens in Tasmania. Green grass, yellow leaves and a blue sky.

Tasmania. Day one. Museum of Old and New Art 🩷
Nature in Tasmania. A mountain, a bay and some bushes. Two friends taking a selfish in front of nature with peace signs and tongues out. A long scary corridor at Mona art museum. Old fashioned cigarette dispenser. Mona.

The table below shows that from 1945-1963, a time period of great prosperity that many want to hark back to, has a tax rate of 91%.

We should tax current billionaires and companies 91 percent and perhaps we could replicate the great age of prosperity?

and -u- before a search stops AI slop.
Search results for Tax rates in the US in the 1950s. The table shows that from 19-4-1963, a time period of great prosperity that many want to hark back to, has a tax rate of 91%. Ergo, we should tax those billionaires and companies 91 percent and we could perhaps have another great age of prosperity? Makes you wonder.

A very funny passage from the book Texts from Jane Eyre about Plato: Plato Okay Gauscon so I want you to picture a cave full of prisoners who have been in the cave their whole lives and they're shackled in a line facing the back wall My god what a nightmare, those poor people OK, no. I mean yes, its terrible, but that's not the point. anyhow they're shackled so they can only look at the back wall. They can't move their heads. What monster would do this And there's a fire behind them A FIRE IN THE CAVE. MY GOD. THESE POOR SOULS. WE MUST RESCUE THEM. no its just, its just a thought experiement. I want to talk about epistemonology. WHAT FOUL SPIRIT WOULD CHAIN HUMAN BEINGS UNDER THE EARTH LIKE HADES no one. no one. They're just there. WE MUST MAKE HASTE. THESE SHACKLED CITIZENS CANNOT FREE THEMSELVES Its an allegory. The cave is just an allegory IMPOSSIBLE. IT IS THE WORK OF A KNAVE AND A BRIGAND. AND I SHALL NOT REST UNTIL HE IS DEAD

If you could commission one fictional character to fix the current US political pro lens, who would it be?

Post a photo you took with no context to bring some Zen to the timeline.
The view from my work desk. A window looks out onto a wide park with trees ending a sports field and a couple of bench seats for people to sit on. There are various work implements in the shot from the work desk.

From outside the US
From Google maps - shows a body of water and the heading Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America) - the reason for the bracketed term is Trump's tiny penis and huge ego

Me at the start of 2024 / me at the end of 2024:

Only one picture, reader. Nothing has changed; I remain sceptical.

The cover of Perfume: the story of a murderer. A novel by Patrick Suskind. On the cover, there is an old painting of a nude woman who has fallen asleep on a couch.

Vision Australia Santa Fun Run. Melbourne. 35 degrees.

Joyful AF.

Facebook post from 12 years ago: Last night I dreamt that I went through a portal to another world which was perfect! The scenery was amazing - near the top of snow covered mountains, trees with autumn coloured leaves and manicured gardens; beautiful sunshine. There were no social.problems and everyone was happy. Total utopia. But there was one thing wrong; NO MUSIC ALLOWED. I had to sneak into an old building to listen to some records on a turntable ( Elvis costelli) after which i was walking down the street and had to hide my earphones because they were proof that I was a music listener. Once the secret music got out, the world started falling apart.

A little pre-Christmas holiday.
Front beach at Point Lonsdale. A seawall and rockpools at low tide. The sky is blue.
