DAC isn’t saying it’s aliens. He is smart enough to know that there’s not nearly enough evidence to suggest these sitings are from aliens. After all, there is no evidence of aliens, so why would he think there was? Don’t put words in his mouth and don’t presume he believes it’s aliens, merely becaus...

I bet only 3% of you will understand this post.

I’m not sure what you mean. Then again, I’m not old enough for Facebook.

So why not post some of the interesting stuff? There is no one on the planet that won’t be interested in learning about aliens.

I never said that I supported the guy. I simply wrote that it might be worth following.

And you have.

What a waste of time and resources. The Force coaches could spend some time coaching high-end skills to get an extra % out of the players, but instead will teach a Middle Aged bogan what a ruck is.

Mind-numbingly dumb. He will never amount to anything.

Tahu might have gone okay if he was better managed. He had a history of bad hammies but had worked out how to avoid injury, but the Tahs’ medicos knew better and didn’t listen to Tahu’s league docs….. his hammy problems returned. Decent form got him as shot in a test match and Dingo decided to play ...

Anyone who has passed economics 101 may have a vague recollection that persistent inflation rate rises of 0.4% or 0.5% per month are considered... troublesome.

China’s singular problem is not the West It’s the internal unrest that might come from removing the sugar hit of constant growth Anything less than 10% GDP growth is a equivalent to a recession in the West They’ve had less than 10% for about 7 years or so, perhaps eerily coincident with the rise of...

What absolutely staggers me here is New Zealand is the least racist nation that I have ever visited and New Zealanders are the least racist people I have met.

Regardless, I'm pretty confident everyone winning Olympic medals in athletics is on something performance-enhancing. Drug testing is not about ensuring drug-free sport, it's about giving the impression to the public that sport is drug-free. If everyone's lying, who cares as long as the public don't...

Prediction: Ukraine will eventually enter NATO/EU after ceding the old Russian lands it was given in a moment of stupidity by Kruschev, back to Russia.

So embarrassed by their appalling Covid-19 response, the leaders of the worst performing western nations, lead by a unkempt blond twat who still can lock his country down properly, are going after a conspiracy theory think it might distract from their failures. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/g7-s...
