The Daily Blog Open Mic – 15th January 2025

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.

Read about Scott and Shackleton’s exploration to Antarctica. They didn’t get ambulance service on their demanding, ground-breaking journeys. How can we afford to send people into space and bring them home when there is a human or mechanical breakdown?
They can get the same glory in death of my birth father for flying a bomber with a crew over Europe in WW2 coming down once successfully only soon to be fired at and have the cockpit flame up according to the rear gunner. All the people that have died fighting in wars at the whim and behest of madmen abandoned to a mad idea,; each one of them a small miracle of advanced, spiritual human evolution! They can be ignored now the big boys wish to play in space.
We are just figures in a playbox, plastic, easy to manipulate and now space is the big new toy along with electric vehicles, self-driving ones are big radio controlled cars. Stop this madness. We are so hoist with our own cleverness. Read a critic of an unusual book, he will find it unsatisfactory to be caught out by a new idea, new view.
It would be so new to wind down development, so unusual; the clever ones are too wound up by their superior toys. Enough already!
I think this government should grow a back bone, kick the FBI and the USA ambassador out.
The brutal way the USA state is treating it’s own citizens by imposing a para military force is anti-democratic and we should have no bar of them till the fix this shit up.
Make me think of that very naughty boy…
