An example of how nominal defenders of public service provision have thoroughly internalised neoliberal dogma:
"There is nothing morally wrong with the proposal that public service bodies such as the ABC should be subject to budget cuts like other organisations, public or private. Commercial media companies, driven by shareholder pressures, have shed thousands of jobs in the past three years."

The neo-Nazi "marchers had no idea until they began their walk, noticing along the route that villagers had set up motivational signs and showered them with confetti when they finished." Brilliant. http://ur1.ca/iv37o

@luke It's quite late here, as well. I don't respond appropriately to peer pressure. Only ever tried smoking because in my first paid employment little old ladies went round the office emptying ashtrays and it seemed churlish to do them out of a job.

@zoowar You're right. Though I don't know how you'd test the hypothesis, that intuition of "if I don't get up and go for a little walk before my next drink, this could turn ugly" is probably more reliable than "I'm a grown man; I can handle my booze through sheer testosterone".

#TV News: Annual panic over #schoolies week. I have no problem with teens drinking, provided they don't expect to be able to drink as much, as gracefully, as someone twice their age. First time I drank, months shy of my 18th birthday, I had three drinks and was happy all night.

#TV News: Melinda Gates thinks we should take the temperature of everybody who gets off a plane. Cuz #Ebola, and everybody knows you only find needles in haystacks.
