Do you think Dutton would keep the High-Speed Rail Authority?

30 years on, that guy still had all those gadgets dangling from his belt, but now he’s the crazy old guy who lives in the junkyard

Though after they killed him, they buried his body at sea at an undisclosed location, to prevent it becoming a shrine.

Surely that’d be Osama Bin Laden in this case

There’d have to be a way of checking people’s identity, and thus their age, whenever they create an account, and it would have to be legally mandated for any online sites where people can post user-generated content. Of course, this would eliminate online anonymity, so as long as we see ourselves as less oppressive than Communist China, there would have to be mitigations to say that we’re not really eliminating online anonymity. Perhaps some sort of third-party age verification agent, which would check identity and just let the sites know if a user is verified to be over the age threshold. This would have to be strictly regulated to ensure data doesn’t leak.

Of course, given that this is Australia, the police would have access to the mapping of people’s identities to online accounts, though under strict safeguards to ensure that this access is only used in the direst emergencies. Of course, this being ‘straya, the safeguards would be like a locked gate on a path with only a KEEP OFF THE GRASS sign preventing the cops from walking around it. Within 18 months, a cop will have used this to put the frighteners on his ex-wife’s new man or something similar. Within 3 years, all pretence will have been abandoned and everyone from the ATO to local councils will have access to the real-world IDs of people’s online accounts.

It’s the “FREE HUGS” murdercave, only targeting middle-aged nerds

I wonder what the proportion of bots to actual gamergate incel chuds who idolise Musk was.

It was probably used for religious purposes of some sort

Oh dear, how sad

I am wondering whether any analysts at the CIA or similar agencies picked up on this years ago in his psychological profile (i.e., the narcissism, paranoia, germophobia, lack of a succession plan, and such) and started making plans. Perhaps there’s a biotech startup in, say, Serbia or somewhere, funded in 2007 with opaquely sourced seed money, “researching” “cellular de-aging” or something, with convincingly faked tests giving just enough promise. The research is fake, of course, and the business is meant as bait to be acquired by a Kremlin entity or one of Putin’s human-wallet oligarchs, at which point Putin’s fate is in the hands of whatever spooks are controlling it.

She’s screaming all the way to the bank, knowing that not particularly based people who consider themselves LGBT allies have been lulled into helping to fund her anti-trans crusade.

Death of the author implies the author being dead (like, say, Lovecraft) and unable to cash in on your fame to fund their problematic crusades.

Anyway, as far as Hogwarts houses go, if you put one in your bio, you’ll start getting attention from ladies with floral names convinced that you’re also Concerned about “gender ideology in schools” or whatever.
