My column. Fire at will, see if I care.
It's time to shut down greyhound racing, for good.
It's being banned all over the world, but in NSW they are propping it up!
Why are the politicians so weak-kneed on it?

Kiwis are brave enough to ban greyhound racing. Why aren’t we?
The NSW government tried to ban greyhound racing, but backed down. Now New Zealand have made the decision.

I don't normally disclose this, but I have long had a theory that all Australian Prime Ministers since Menzies, with one exception, visually trend towards the koala.

An investigation.

My home is surrounded by walking tracks. Discovered a new one this morning.
Up through an old mine site.
3kms walk up into the bush and back home.
I like to just walk, feel the sensation of my feet on the ground, and listen to birdsong rather than podcasts.

I love the whole social media thing for the exchange of news and views. I've no problem with disagreements and debate. What makes it TEDIOUS is wading through abuse.
Isn't any group of friends or acquaintances, whether in rl or online, an echo chamber? You hang out with people with shared values and similar opinions out in the cold, hard world so why is it wrong here? 🤔

Slowly the dregs of Skum-X are finding their way over here. What squalid little lives they must lead. Straight block, no interaction. About five this morning.

On Twitter I was hesitant to block. I liked the idea of people unknowingly screaming into the void. And some took blocks as a weird trophy.

Recently I've changed my mind. Not blocking leaves trolls free to use you as a stepping stone to hate on others. So I block more liberally now.

I used to post cooking pics on Twitter in the olden days. Is it still a thing or too trivial? (I like homemade trivia myself..) Here’s my homecoming-summer-excitement chicken larb as a tester post.

Challenging my opinions is always acceptable as long as it is done with civility. Personal abuse and invective never is.
