GREAT MOMENTS IN UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES.

Every now and then I beat myself up over the time I spend trawling the internet. But also, every now and then (just less often than the first every now and then) I stumble across something that is funny, on-target, and worth sharing.

From ReasonTV.

The first episode was released 12 years ago. The second dates from 2021. What, no Great Moments for a whole ten years? Anyway, they’ve made it up for it since then with a dozen now on youtube.

Here’s that second episode. It might be two years old but it’s still painfully relevant.

View and enjoy the complete set here.

Tim comes in on the second half of this item about the Voice, the already very expensive proposal to give indigenous Australians the representation in government that several dozen agencies/authorities/departments and a few tens of billions don’t provide.

The first half should be highly enjoyable even for non-Australians, as our twithead Prime Minister cops some hard questioning on the Voice from Sydney radio presenter Ben Fordham.

Nice dig at the Guardian, too.

…when you’re scared to use the toilet,

but you’re on the verge of crapping like you’ve never crapped before…

Scroll down for instant intestinal ejection.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Big-bucks pushback, as it were.

Arizona State University is the latest institution to learn the meaning of “go woke, go broke” when a top donor announced he would stop his $400K a year donation

Said donation withdrawn when an ASU professor staged an event which featured notorious conservatives Charlie Kirk and Dennis Prager. ASU said ‘You can’t do that here, you’re fired’.

Tom Lewis said ‘You can’t do that, ASU’ and closed his wallet.

After seeing this level of left-wing hostility and activism, I no longer had any confidence in Barrett to adhere to the terms of our gift, and made the decision to terminate our agreement, effective June 30, 2023.

Good work there, Mr Lewis.

Now, who had ‘No note, no mask’ on their bingo card for 2023?

A new report alleges that fast food chain In-N-Out Burger is banning employees from sporting masks while on the clock, unless they obtain a doctor’s note.

In-N-Out Burger is California-based, but this regulation will not apply in Newsomland. According to Legal Insurrection, Cali has a law that prevents employers banning masks.

In-N-Out has previously shown some backbone during the years of covid madness. The San Francisco premises were shut down in 2021 because the company wouldn’t enforce vaccine mandates.

“We refuse to become the vaccination police for any government,” In-N-Out’s Chief Legal and Business Officer Arnie Wensinger said in a statement. “It is unreasonable, invasive, and unsafe to force our restaurant associates to segregate customers into those who may be served and those who may not, whether based on the documentation they carry, or any other reason.”

The cafe later reopened but offered outdoor dining only.

Interesting side note on the last link there – the report indicates that In-N-Out wasn’t the city’s only eatery to fight covid regulations.

Resistance to C-tyranny in San Francisco, of all places. Who would have expected that?

Rebel News reports the stories that our MSM miss.

Australian insurer drops cover for doctors giving hormone treatment to kids
The decision by MDA National, which came into effect on July 1, was prompted by the insurer’s review of the medico-legal risks associated with such treatments.
It cited “growing global criticism of the research supporting medical and surgical transition of children with gender dysphoria” as a contributing factor.

ABC surrenders in defamation battle against war hero
The ABC has waved the white flag in its defamation fight against war hero Heston Russell.
The national broadcaster’s surrender comes just two weeks before the matter was set for trial.
The former special forces commando Russell sued the ABC and two of its journalists for defamation, claiming that stories published about him made it look like he was being investigated for shooting an unarmed prisoner.
There won’t be too many Australians shedding tears for the ABC, even if they will be shelling out taxpayer dollars for pay their legal bill.
Memory may be deceiving me, but it seems to me that the MSM set its sights on Australia’s military after 2012. Mocking comments from a couple of media idiots about SAS officer Ben Roberts-Smith provoked a storm of angry pull-yer-fkn-heads-in commentary across The Great South Land. Roberts-Smith himself fought and lost a defamation case. Heston Russell was luckier, or maybe had better legal advice.

I saved the best for last.

Victoria Police finally dumps vaccine requirement as it struggles to attract new recruits
Police Federation of Australia President Ian Leavers warned in May that the community would be in “crisis” if problems recruiting new police officers were not solved.
He said Victoria Police had more than 800 vacancies they were unable to fill… Leavers said people were reluctant to join the police force after witnessing the way they had been used to enforce Covid-19 restrictions during the pandemic.
And not just in Victoria, either. A few months ago the West Australian state government was bragging that it had hundreds of UK cops packing their bags and ready to emigrate; they’ve been remarkably quiet on that subject lately. Essentially the same line was put out by the Queensland government recently. As if the announcement was being shared around between the states like a cheap suit.

President Joe Biden on Thursday issued an executive order authorizing the Pentagon to call reservists to active duty “for the effective conduct” of U.S. military support to Ukraine.

Cocaine and World War Three. What a legacy to leave future generations, Joe.

After this, an alien invasion would be something of an anticlimax.

Like, how many horse puns you can pack into one photo.

You know how it turns me on!
