Now watch the price of crude oil spike

Good point spatial. I'm embarrassed to admit I hadn't considered that as a reason for them having an increased comfort with risk. If you honestly believe that sky fairies will save you if you're supposed to be saved you're probably not going to consider risk reduction as much as the average picnic basket.

It's easy for us to make calls on what people are doing but religion always throws a spanner in the works because it defies logic for people who genuinely believe in their sky fairies. I'm a sky fairy person, but mine also have a sense of humour so I doubt they'd be mad at me for calling them that lmao. Truly believing in a fundamental truth like that probably would make one inclined to throw your fates to the wind. What will be will be after all.

Those prepping for earthquakes and tsunami watch out for subduction zone areas, they are more prone to rapid tsunami and land uplift than previously thought.

Hal Turner is, to put it indelicately, an absolute nutter who makes shiz up every time he opens his mouth and applies absolutely NO effective analytical effort into his make believe stories. Perfect example. I spent not even five minutes and found multiple sources from various different countries of weather patterns in the local area over the crash site at the relevant time and date and what did I find? SO MUCH DATA. He is absolutely full of it. One particular source has a glitch or data-dump from that one source, and he freaks out and thinks that it's disappeared like a baby playing peekaboo with it's mother. What does he do when facebook glitches on him? Must have an absolute panic attack because he has nowhere to source his made up nonsense from. And the whole "Journalists use this source..." any journo worth their salt (or reputation) uses at minimum three sources to confirm their information. Three. One isn't available out of the thousands and thousands that could be used, but that means that someone's deleting data?

That's... That's not how this works. That's not how ANY of this works.




Note the time and date stamp at the bottom. That's just one of the multiple data sources I found in a brief moment of searching for historical data. There's wind gust, precipitation, pressure... All kinds of info which all reflect the same essential thing. It was foggy, gusty, and a bit trash to fly in. And I can assure you that even if cloud seeding were used, in the zoomed out view you can see a weather pattern that VERY clearly indicates that it's natural.

I can't be bothered providing evidence against literally everything else he says. It's all there. You just have to spend two seconds looking for it, which obviously he's hoping his freaked out audience won't bother to do. He loves himself a fairytale, does that guy. He just doesn't seem to care whether it's even slightly believable.

Well in fairness we have to check our sceptical biases too. My automatic bias is "If you can't find the data it's opinion, not fact'. Sometimes opinion is all you can achieve because there just isn't enough data to make a solid assessment. And we all know that there are situations where the data is intentionally hidden so it can be hard to find the facts. Or you don't have the expertise in the field to make the right call on the basis of the information you DO have. Long story short, nothing is guaranteed.

The below link gives evidence that is anecdotal at best, but it's pretty clear that Victoria is around 6-12 months into an undeclared recession. I've seen many of the same things that are being posted by others, and in an industry that is allegedly still booming. Unusual for the very woke and rusted-on ALP reddit users in Melbourne, statements that excessive immigration is swamping the jobs market for locals are going unopposed. I have tried to hire nationally recently and practically every (non-overseas) candidate was applying from Melbourne.

In a nutshell, the Vic government:
- Went totally overboard during medical Apartheid, tanking the economy and causing a subsequent interstate exodus;
- Borrowed massively at a time when interest rates were about to rise;
- Spent eye-watering sums of money during a time of construction labour shortages, seeing huge project blowouts;
- Ignored it's own independent experts an began suburban rail loop with no planning, pre-works, easements etc. that you must do in the years leading up to a major infrastructure project;
- Let the CFMEU further tighten its stranglehold on building sites;
- Didn't have an effective opposition due to the Vic Libs being a shambles.

The ALP really should have lost the last election, but with no real alternative they got back even with a 5% swing against them. We are now seeing the fallout from this and it's not good for Victorians. Completely out of character, the feds have started subsidising the Vic budget in a way that I have never seen them do, but it's pissing on a bonfire at this stage.

Will be intersting to see if/how badly the other states are affected.

For a while, definitely linked. Excess death rate, construction workers in so short supply that employers blatantly ignoring the apartheid rules.

All over now though. Even some parts of construction are dying off.

QLD and VIC are screwed because their voters are too stupid to look outside the two big parties. Same with WA. They deserve everything they get. If all those stupid voters elected the Lib Democrats are big Clive then the situation would be a lot different.

At least Qld looks certain to get rid of the ALP at the next election. Transport in the state is a joke. 20 minutes north of Brisbane, the rail network drops to single track narrow-gauge. This is a rail network that continues for another 1500km to Cairns. So industry ends up relying on road freight instead, causing a constant requirement for works on the Bruce hwy, which never gets 'de-congested'. It is madness.
