The Daily Blog Open Mic – 9th December 2022
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.
EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist language, homophobic language, racist language, anti-muslim hate, transphobic language, 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.
As a rilly rilly sophusticated Koiwoi, Oim Just loving it!

Not sure where Cape Ringa is either, but we probably need to import a few Dalits to clean up those disgusting poos and wees that have stinkings more pungent than Joanne’s.

The law breaking in NZ is horrific, because perhape various authorities have added so many misdemeanours to their list of no-nos. This sort of theing only adds insult to injury for people who feel hemmed in by precepts to the point where they don’t try to be lawful, feeling law-full.
The police have quietly lowered the threshold at which speed cameras ping drivers.
The result is tens of thousands more tickets handed out for drivers doing between one and 11 kph over the speed limit.
For January 2021, for instance, police figures show static and mobile speed cameras snapped just under 20,000 drivers doing just over the limit – a year later, in January 2022, that figure was more than 90,000.

Some interesting points about cancer.
https://www.scoop.co.nz/stories/HL2212/S00016/to-be-a-good-cancer.htm
Cancer is one of those c-words which we resile from. The essence of cancer, as a disease in the body, is that a part of the body becomes a tumour which has a ‘malign’ growth imperative; a cellular reproduction program which eventually colonises the body and – if insufficiently checked – kills that whole of which it is a growing part.
A ‘sufficient check’ may sometimes be instigated by the body’s immune system, or may be the result of a ‘rescue mission’ in the form of medical treatment. A third possibility is that the cancer is ‘self-aware’, and at some point contains itself; aware that by killing the whole body it also kills itself.
These farmers are equivalent to the covid protesters – not wiling to help and co-operate with the helping state agency for their own good and particularly the whole industrry throughout the country – selfishness on Ayn Rand of gigantic borders.
