I hate autocorrect! How did it manage to change a verb "tempt" to a noun "temptation "?

Today is the 251st anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.

Remind you of anyone?

So now the U.S. regime plan to add piracy to their growing list of criminal behaviour. 🤬🤬🤬

Not to temptation you, but Connoisseur now have Pistachio Gelato tubs. 😈

Nope, not posting gigs that I have been to. It will give away just how old I am!

Pretending to the workers, but voting with the bosses. NEVER voted for better industrial rights❌ NEVER voted for Same Job, Same Pay❌ NEVER voted for more secure, affordable housing❌ NEVER voted for apprentices to have free TAFE❌ NEVER voted for energy workers❌ NEVER has our backs.

The AMWU (Australian Manufacturing Workers Union) created a poster explaining what Pauline Hanson really stands for, and when working class people should vote for her...

Yep.

Definitely! Go for it.
I have a camera given to me by my brother-in-law with film in it and I am going to wander around our village and see if the time-expired film is still viable.
Much younger than yours, an Olympus OM-1.

One stepson lived with us, the other two lived elsewhere, 2 separate houses. All love Dave Matthews. I couldn't escape "Ants Marching" and others.
Everywhere I went, bloody Dave effing Matthews!
I hated Dave Matthews for years. Now I no longer have to leave the room.

Could Australia borrow him to campaign on behalf of our One Nation political party?

In my opinion every "news" broadcast by Fox or other Murdoch media should be prefaced with the words: "Any statements made during this broadcast should not be considered truth and other sources should be consulted for veracity". 😡

Can't help just fade away into irrelevancy? Every time he emerges from the slime I throw up a little in my mouth.

Sold that bike in 2016, to a guy who restored it to showroom condition.

"But it's my traditional right to hunt".
OK, go and hunt in the traditional manner: you with 2 or maybe even three spears. Prove that you are a real man.

Some sources claim that the computer "bug" was literally that - an insect (moth?) that had crawled into an early computer and caused spurious results. Seems good to me, and old guy who knows what RAM used to look like. (Thank you, Mr An Wang).

I watched a chrysalis on my fence years ago, waiting for this kind of moment.
One morning I looked and thought "within a day or two" and headed off to the local car show.
Got home 3 hours later and it was all over - butterfly had emerged and departed. 😭

Beautiful butterfly, crappy name: Black Crow.
Love their silvery chrysalis.

It was David McBride who blew the whistle, triggering the Brereton report & laying the groundwork for Ben Roberts‑Smith’s charges.
The thanks he got was jail, while war criminals roamed free.
It’s about time Roberts-Smith is put away for good, but McBride must be released.

And U.S. military gets to fight and die in Israel's war, while Israelis get to sit back and applaud.
It has been said, and I will say it again, your government is seriously ill.

Genocide is defined as the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group

Trump declaring “a whole civilization will die tonight” — threatening eradication of a “civilization” — is a statement of genocidal intent

Hmm. Glad I'm up here and you're down there! 😱

Respect the elderly!
Either that or she has reached the "I am old and dgaf anymore" level. 😂

This is for the U.S. but holds true for most "free world" governments: conservatives support the rich to the detriment of the country, while the middle/ left governments repair what the conservatives screw up.
