Announce protest actions, general chit chat or give your opinion on issues we haven’t covered for the day.

The Editor doesn’t moderate this blog,  3 volunteers do, they are very lenient to provide you a free speech space but if it’s just deranged abuse or putting words in bloggers mouths to have a pointless argument, we don’t bother publishing.

All in all, TDB gives punters a very, very, very wide space to comment in but we won’t bother with out right lies or gleeful malice. We leave that to the Herald comment section.

EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist abuse, homophobic abuse, racist abuse, anti-muslim abuse, transphobic abuse, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, Qanon lunacy, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics, 5G conspiracy theories, the virus is a bioweapon, some weird Bullshit about the UN taking over the world  and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.

    I would hope that the Gazaians still left include some with a deep understanding of the hypocrisy of the modern monetised world. Holidays at the front for tourists with the money going to welfare – so kind and sweet – vids from the actual trenches of actual blasts and possibly some limping survivors and a quick flash of hopefully, bloody death. Be the envy of your circle and go where no other has been! Being distanced from reality! And remember we can operate in a mind- imposed trance. The poor Jewish prisoners who were forced to pick over the bodies of their compatriots for gold in their teeth or other artifacts to be harvested before disposal.

    Can we start loving each other, just a bit – and enabling others lives and smiles instead of grabbing all their resources, or just using it while we gape at them like living museums??????????????????????????

    Meanwhile all the people who haven’t got a war going on just at the moment, and who are pleasing the Big Corpse and The Man/Woman are being good, approved of, and deserve some time off the leash. How naice.

  2. ACC could usefully spend some of their ever rising charges on teaching children how to read the behaviour of a dog so they understand it better. There are too many nasty events.
    This is interesting.

    Another common gesture humans misinterpret is the wagging tail, Kaminski said. [Juliane Kaminski. – University of Portsmouth]
    “There’s this idea that a dog that wags its tail is always happy and always friendly… and that’s just wrong, so it’s just incorrect. So we have to interpret the whole body to some extent, and we have to interpret the posture of the tail and whether it is relaxed or, or stiff, et cetera.
    “In its essence, wagging tail just simply means that the dog is aroused about something that can be positive or negative.”
    One way to get a better sense of the dog’s intention is whether the tail is stiff (probably not happy) or relaxed (possibly happy).

    Dog attacks, Kaminski said, often come with warnings ahead of time that humans simply do not notice.
    “Very, very often there are subtle signs that the dog is trying to give to indicate that it needs more space or that it’s not comfortable in the situation, or that it’s stressed – and those signs are simply overlooked…

  3. Have we all read and thought about this?
    https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/in-depth/557567/state-abuse-survivor-eugene-ryder-on-abuse-gangs-and-his-king-s-service-medal
    …He was abused in state care from the age of 11, robbed a bank at 16, and grew up in a world of violence and sexual abuse where gangs were the norm. He served prison time before he could legally vote. He says Black Power will always be a part of who he is.
    But today, he’s also a qualified social worker, a frontline advocate for meth-free communities, and a powerful voice for survivors of state care abuse…

    We should all be doing a bit of this because not anyone of us has not advanced themselves without having utilised some person or situation that others have laboured at or suffered to introduce and that is in either a good or a bad way. Burning people as witches or putting them through bad treatment would be for a reason that had to be justified. It takes a lot of effort to stand up and assimilate that sort of horror. And you may be disliked, reviled for doing good or trying to. But we need to change from Me and each personally participate and give Ayn Rand and her Selfishness the go-by, that all OTT theories deserve.
