The Turtle House
John Fitzpatrick. About New China, the Koreas, Myanmar, Thailand, and also about Japanese and Chinese writers and poets. The main emphasis is on North Asia and the political tectonics of this very important, powerful, and many-peopled area.

These are hard times, for sure. All the formerly world-accredited good decent human folk are doing horrible things... and for years... and with total impunity..and they like it. So bad you can't even really say they are so bad.The Jews and the Americans...no wonder Jesus wept. I didn't make them Evil, They did that all by themselves. They stink to high heaven, and they still just love doing what they do, mostly murdering children to upset the race numbers there. To make Israel's rule more dominant, by the numbers. Just killing children. They have even made Iran look good. They have even made Putin look good. That was hard to do. How hard was that? But they did it, absolutely, and are still doing it. They are disgusting! Hurl, brother, hurl.

I guess, in all of this, when you have your own mind and are pretty content with it, after 72 years in the fulcrum and the field, after the myriad and various natural challenges to your views, and you grow some deep years into yourself...and beyond yourself, until that's about as equal as you can discern anything...then Israel is a real cunt of a nation. The government of it and the people in it. All they do is evil these days. It's all they know how to do these days. This is only really of relevance to the human beings they actively, mercilessly, and very proudly obliterate every day. This deeply feeds them. To kill the poor folk of Gaza is food from heaven for them. That the USA gives them the ability to do this every day says a lot about the cowering and odious USA. These are not the Master Races open our world. These are the real scum.
These are the scum of life on earth
As for Israel: And verily, it came to pass that there was a faint voice calling out in the wilderness... "Hey! You! Yes, you, Dopey! Don't believe the shit they are saying! Work it out for yourself! They're absolute evil bastards!"

Australia will always be late to the party. We are a long way away from things that matter. We are a big space with a small population. We are fearful of being exactly where we are. We are terribly fearful of being who we are. We have tightened friendships with the UK and the USA but have made no friends in Asia, where we live. A few hundred organised years, and still not one friend. I recall an Australian Labor Party PM saying we must adjust our view to an Asian Future 30 years after that had already happened. We still have no friends in Asia at all. Our convict stock was always behooving and kneeling to the UK, and now it is the USA. We have an AUKUS deal about nuclear powered submarines from the USA, although we know we wont actually ever get them...and that, to us, doesn't matter. This will be an extraordinary gift of hundreds of billions of Australian dollars to the USA general revenue. We acknowledge that we need to give them our money and receive nothing. We know that. we know our place. We haven't evolved very much, even with every opportunity to do so. We haven't ever disagreed with the USA. We are not anywhere near being an independent nation in any way or form. Well, once, we did go against that grain, for sure, just the once...and of all people to do that it was that Tony Liberal Party guy who quickly signed a trade deal with China when the USA ordered us not to. Because China told us to. Just once in more than one hundred years of ally-ship. Just that once. What can you say bout Australia? Gutless? True. Recidivist? True. Supplicant? True. War mongering? True. Stooges? True. Running Dogs? True. But let's not just focus on the positives for now. One day we may even have our own flag. Imagine that! Oh, too scary. One day our government may even make one more small decision for us that is actually good for us. Don't hold your breath.

Life's Mysteries Bringing in my washing from the line, I noticed for the first time, that all my clothes: shirts pants socks underwear - were black. I wondered just how and why and, indeed when, life had turned me into a Ninja.There was little time to wonder as the sound of a star-knife swished past my head, and a thud as it embedded itself in the wooden fence behind me. I crouched low, muttered "Ha!" under my breath, and then I leapt up, of a sudden, high up into the tree, unsheathed a katana, and twitched a bit, yet in pure silence, my eyes darting about, looking for Tombei, The Mist. I was immediately the Samurai, Shintaro, in Melton South, and life was dangerous. I would now have to bathe naked in hot public baths, and then gird my loins in a roll of white cotton cloth that bunched up a bit too much. "Ha!"

I've just been online discussing issues with an APHRA robot about re-registering as a registered nurse for the coming year, in Australia. They don't have human people there any more. I've understood a lot of quite bizarre people over a 40 year career, but not this quirky robot turd. I just want to give him my money. "Hello, I'm me, here are my details, here is my money." Nope. Can't do that. Who the F are these cretins? No, no way, I'm not going to learn a 4 page instruction list with quite a few words and expressions I would need to research, about how to give them my money. The money is here, waiting to be given. Understand? Having worked in the realm of end of life pain amelioration, and then in psychopathy, for many decades now, let's just put some pressure on. Make it easy for me, baby. This is my last year at the coal face of it all. Do something for me.
