Welcome back Dipnro Brainbomb, how ironic that you return as I prepare to take a break from active involvement at WebDiplomacy & doubly ironic since you propose to become the central character in a NetStanflix film production as I leave to pursue my real albeit embryonic career & pilgrimage as an ac...

Have aquired the shiny yellow 2005 Ducati Supersport 800cc engine motorcycle and riding it is a joyful, happy experience. It is magnificent, beautiful design, engineering and fabrication. I am pleased it is the 800cc model, there are 1000cc models but I did not want one of those, they're a bit heavi...

Hooray, the 21 month legal battle against that commit assault charge is ended. Charge withdrawn, prosecution will pay me ~$Aus3,300 towards my legal expenses. Have appt at dentist Sat 24th december to get remnant of a molar tooth in my lower right jaw extracted, it's had an infection around the root...

Thanks for the kind comments. Have driven to Adelaide for important appearance in Adelaide Magistrates Court today linked to my political activism in support of Human Rights and Democracy activists in Hong Kong, elsewhete in PRC and in Myanmar. You can, if interested, do a Farcebook search to find m...

Given that I like a big pot of tea with my Burger, these straws are unnecessary for drinking hot tea.
Straws are an affectation imho
Most children graduate from.those drinking cups with lid and spout

Good God above!!! Nostalgia for McCrappas? Thete are plenty of independent small businesses providing much better hamburgers than McCrappas! The REAL DEBATE should be what ingredients are required in a "Hamburger with the Lot" For me, they include: Basics, Bread Roll, Beef Patty, fried Onion, fried ...

Perhaps a benefit of Trumptoad's corrupt and dangerous acts that have threatened Democracy in the USA is the resulting mobilisation of those who now realise the threat that he and his supporters pose to their democracy, they have been shaken from apathy into action? In a similar way to the big scare...

Whether the Conservative Christia Evangelicals are genuine or fake Christians is a question of merit in my opinion. The hatred they express towards minorities, to anyone who disagrees with them is antithetical to the teachings of Jesus imho. Whether I believe in the teachings of Jesus is irrelevant....

Thank you for the kind messages. I daresay I will visit Webdiolomacy not to.play but to look.at Forum posts etc. Kestas, I am undoubtedly on the watch list of the Chinese Intelligence services in Australia, they've been taking photos of me for a few years. The criminal charge I have been defending f...

I will be giving up on playing Diplomacy soon. It just has not given me what I need this year and cannot give me what I need spritually, emotionally or intellectually in 2023 or 2024 and new alternate activities can give me what I need, acting, film making and a return to performing live standup com...

Thanks for the good news Nearly Omniescent Kestas and an opportunity to ingratiate myself with you by giving you a +1

Too many Gods & Dogmas for me, give me a good gun dog and a Purdey.

But surely you would be more interested in my election campaign? Voting closes here tomorrow, a week later I will know if I have been, or have not been elected as a Councillor on my local Council. If elected it will be a Rotunda in every Park with Marching Bands leading our economic recovery! I will...

Whatever Marvel Comical Universe is up to is of little interest to me, they've made their choices, and audiences will, or will not choose to pay to see it's garish horrors. My point is that I allow the MCU producers make their choices and they reap the consequences, amd i expect similar freedom to m...

What about Artistic freedom? The freedom of an artist to have and make their artistic choices unfettered by the moral and social norms? Artists rarely force an audience to look.at or try to force the audience to try to understand their art. Artist are artists to fulfill their needs, not the needs of...

It is interesting reading the comments about casting choices. I have the rare good fortune of being an embryonic actor and comedian with extra roles in one 24 minute short movie recently released on Youtube titled Formosus, the Mystic and the Witch and a similar current participation in a Horror fea...

May I suggest the definition of "super hero" mostly used is an archaic patronising innacurate concept when applied to women. My example of a female hero in a film is the film that portrays mathematician Hypatia with Rachel Weiz in the lead role. Or the better movie portrayals of Elizabeth 1st. Not t...

Thank.you Jmo for acting in the ways you have.. I wondered briefly if some distopian horror had infected our Forum with More Decorum. The attack on Feminism was abhorrent, the rubbish about Men a disgrace. A notable offensive absurdity was the claim that Webdip members are CNN acolytes, in a confuse...

Correction, it is an autobiography, written in code by Emperor Claudius and he hid it before his death, it was undiscoverd for ~1,700 years and is not "censored" or edited, changed by his successors

I would suggest that any person who claims their Bible contains a perfect message to us from a God is delusional. Inconvenient fact: there are a multitude of different Bibles, and and even greater range of human interpretations of what God's message to us is from those various Bibles. Often these a ...
