On false equivalencies in politics
There’s absolutely no benifit from saying that both sides are equally to blame, it’s a fucking cop out, plain and simple. It ignores and obscures the true source of problems and only serves to give a free ride to the side who are actively out to harm and obstruct, absolving them of their true share of responsibility.

On the mindset of being a 'cunt'
I’ve decided I want to be a terrible person. It’s so much more expedient than being a good person and brings a perverse sense of satisfaction. Affirmation, recognition and validation for being a ‘cunt’ are so much easier to attain than for being a kind, thoughtful person. Think of all the ‘cunts’ you know and think of all the genuinely, sincerely good people you...

Have you ever wondered what the world would be...
I think about this a lot. I’m sure on a micro level the world would be a terrible place; everyone would just be nasty condescending dicks to each other and absolutely no work would get done. But I’d like to think on a macro level, the world would be a much better place. Women would get equal pay with men, gays would be allowed to marry, weed would be legal and plentiful, there’d...

On respecting soldiers
Here’s an unpopular opinion: Nope. Fuck off. Won’t do it.
I know a lot of people seem to love soldiers and say that we should give our armed forces our full respect for risking their lives to ‘protect our FREEDOM’ and will be deeply offended by proxy and will vehemently disagree with me and for that I am truly unapologetic. I’m not saying this to be a contrarian or...

Keep ya filthy gubmint hands offa my Medicare
This morning I was awoken by my alarm clock powered by electricity generated by the public power monopoly regulated by the US Department of Energy. I then took a shower in the clean water provided by the municipal water supply. After that, I turned the TV to one of the FCC regulated channels to see what the National Weather Service of the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration...

To see what it’s like, I mean, it just looks so incredibly easy. You don’t have to give a fuck about anything important, you don’t have to think and you no longer have to consider these things called ‘facts’ and ‘tolerance’. Fuck the poor, fuck non whites, fuck non Christians (Muslims, Atheists and Jews especially), fuck refugees, fuck socialist lefties,...

SAD REALITY!

Found this tweet piece on the Al-Jazeera site, in an article on the Oslo terror attacks.

Harry Potter by Ayn Rand
magular-the-impalor:
Harry decided not to save anyone, because it was against his rational self interest.
Voldemort won, and rightly so, as his ethical egoism allowed him to value his life above all else.

On right wing reasoning against the carbon tax
Now before you go off at me for being facetious and creating strawmen etc. these are arguments I’ve actually heard and read (albeit somewhat paraphrased and with artistic license taken in some cases) and if you read and talk around I’m sure you can find hundreds of people who will parrot these abysmally idiotic sentiments.
Jewliar Gillard is worse than Stalin!
Australia is under a...

On the merits of buying a Kindle
I’ve given some thought as to whether or not I should buy a Kindle (I mean they look pretty neat and I do have sufficient funds to purchase one) and like the most lazy, insipid and uncreative of writers (my overuse of adjectives, and fuck, brackets, and doublefuck, commas also point to my inadequacy as a purveyor of word vomit) I decided that a Pro vs. Con list would be the best way to...

On asylum seekers and 'boat people'
If there’s one word that had to be used to describe this whole issue it’s ‘ignorance’. Other words that come to mind are ‘xenophobia’ and ‘political expediency’ . Way too many Australians utilise the most specious and tenuous of reasoning to justify their backwards and hateful opinions. If you are one of these lowlife, intellectually impaired...
The War on Consciousness →
dutchish:
We are told that the “war on drugs” is being waged, on our behalf, by our governments and their armed bureaucracies and police forces, to save us from ourselves. “Potential for abuse and harm” are supposed to be the criteria by which the use of drugs is suppressed - the greater a drug’s potential for abuse and harm, the greater and more vigorous the degree of suppression,...

Fuck off Tony Abbott, you are not an economist or climate scientist nor are you smarter or more informed than the best of each our country has to offer.

On Republican greed #1
(No, the #1 is not presumptuous because I will most surely be writing on this subject again…numerous times.)
So basically, Republicans are dicking around with debt limit negotiations and holding the Democrats and the American people to ransom, just plain fucking walking out of the negotiating room because they don’t want their precious oil and gas subsidies, tax treatment of private...

On the Liberal voter mindset
From my own experience, there’s two (three if you count swinging voters who don’t particularly have any type of special loyalty to either party) kinds of Liberal Party (they really need to fucking change their name, I appreciate the historical origin, but the confusion it causes with foreigners and the misnomer it has become outweighs that) voters here in Australia. The first are the...

To do list for these holidays
1. Get a job to supplement my Youth Allowance and Rent Assistance. 2. Spend the extra money on poisoning myself with heightened consumption of alcohol, cigarettes and weed. 3. Resume reading for the sole purpose of leisure and bettering myself as a person 4. Start going for runs at night (how this will mesh with my increased consumption of cigarettes is yet to be seen). 5. Write or post something...

On Camus and 'The Stranger'
“Maman died today. Or yesterday maybe, I don’t know. I got a telegram from the home: Mother deceased. Funeral tomorrow. Faithfully yours. That doesn’t mean anything. Maybe it was yesterday.”
There’s a reason why Albert Camus is (currently) my favourite author and ‘The Stranger’ is my favourite book. In fact there are a number of them, and it vaguely...

Mission statement
I will be providing grossly mis/(un?)informed yet caustic, sardonic and completely self assured, profane Carlin-esque diatribes railing against the evils and ills of our world; religion, ignorance and bigotry, conservative politics in Australia and abroad, and the destructive and malignant culture of the white middle class (that last one was a half-joke). Additionally I will post things that amuse...
