Sign of the Times

Don't you hate it when people use all of your margarine and replace it with that light shit, because they think it is better for you? (I am talking about housemates here, of course)

2023 - margarine? Really? I have used butter for years. Ever since Dante showed me his blue porcelain butter dish in which he used to keep his butter in the cupboard. Genius, I thought. Butter doesn't have to be kept hard in the fridge. I think I changed over immediately. More than I can say for poor old Dante, nothing kept him fresh. After a series of strokes, he ended up living in govt housing on health benefits in a less than desirable suburb. Poor Dante. He never really made it in life, which turned out to be a series of disasters, really that is the best any of us can say now.

So many people in this world are so unaware. Unaware of anything outside their own circle. They don’t know, or don’t care, how other people live in this world.

I often find those who don't travel to be the worst

Practically, 100% of the population said that immigrants should uphold Australian values, like bloody parrots, (parroting the conservative govt who are saying it to appeal to those very people. It is a circular argument made solely to get votes) How many of them could list what those values are? (What are Australian values?)

It's funny how racism raises its ugly head in Australia, now that it is Howard Government policy. (You could be excused for thinking racism is an Australian value thanks to Little Johnny Howard and how he has vilified certain, shall we say, non-Christian races) Stop the boats! Man the borders! Fortress Australia! Stop – the most vulnerable people on the planet – refugees!

And people just accept it.

So many sheep, so few drovers. (The gay boys lament, right there. Ha ha)

Half the population could die and truthfully the other half of the population would clap. We've not evolved.

Have you noticed that people will just walk in front of you in the street, now, only focussed on what their want to achieve?

So many people are so self-focussed. (Of course, I blame conservative politicians)

Conservative politicians have used to policies of division for so long to get ahead, really cleverly blaming the other side of those tactics all along.
