I don’t know which is the greater task: to decentralize a top-heavy civilization or to prevent an ancient civilization from becoming centralized and top-heavy. In both cases the core of the problem is to discover what constitutes a good civilization, then proclaim it to the people and help them to erect it.
- Gandhi

Everyone I know is moving to Adelaide “Adelaide was the first city in Australia, if not in the world, to provide for the health and recreation of all its citizens.” — Robin Boyd ‘The answer is simple, but it brings no solace: Lindy Chamberlain did not fit the bill for how a “grieving mother” should look. It didn’t matter that not a single skerrick of hard evidence pointed to her guilt. It didn’t matter that the apparent “blood spatter” found in her car was actually paint splash-back mixed with iron oxide from her hometown of Mount Isa. It didn’t matter that she supposedly committed the murder, disposed of the body and wiped herself clean of blood in under ten minutes. It didn’t matter that several Indigenous elders and trackers living at Uluru bore witness to a fresh dingo track the day following Azaria’s disappearance. It didn’t matter that several bystanders (including one very emphatic one) vowed to have heard Azaria cry out at the time she would have been snatched by the wild dog. None of this mattered because Lindy Chamberlain didn’t cry enough. She didn’t scream enough, wail enough or show enough “feminine” emotion. For this reason alone, the police, the media and the public determined with rapid force that she was guilty. And it’s this very theme we have seen throughout time, and across countless cases. Women who don’t behave the way we expect them to–women who break the norm–are very likely evil women‘ womensagenda.com.au/latest/why-didnt-she-cry-how-lindy-chamberlain-became-the-poster-child-for-life-shattering-gender-bias/

‘Straya. Gotta love it
‘No one knows, incidentally, why Australia's spiders are so extravagantly toxic; capturing small insects and injecting them with enough poison to drop a horse would appear to be the most literal case of overkill. Still, it does mean that everyone gives them lots of space.’ — Bill Bryson, In a Sunburned Country

I would say that; it's where I'm from. I've recently returned after 30 years living in the UK. Naturally, there have been many changes, and not all of them for the best. One of the great things where I live now, is I can easily get to some fab bush walks on the bus. Having an "old farts" bus pass is wonderful! Thank you so much for this. It jogged my memory of a forgotten TV advert. Pity the ads they show now aren't as good as this.

Dan Andrews Government Exposed Profiling Citizens According to Covid Compliance dailydeclaration.org.au/2023/12/18/dan-andrews-government-exposed-profiling-citizens-according-to-covid-compliance/Article title: Yes, they profiled citizens according to compliance Ramesh Thakur exposes Dan Andrews’ Labor government classified Victorian people according to their degree of compliance with inhuman orders & controls Some quotes: “Thus the government was using taxpayer money to commission research from a private consultancy into grading people according to their Covid compliance score, in order to devise a strategy to persuade them into following government directives and obey government orders.” “Addressed chiefly as a public health matter, the primary concern would have been the health and safety of the people. Instead, the primary motivation was clearly political control and moulding public opinion for partisan advantage.” “This sounds suspiciously like the necessary first step in designing and then implementing a social credit system, the end point of which will be to reward and punish based on government-defined social good.”
