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.

Magnificent song about the real living of the USA, as it really is. Tearing itself apart. It needs to do that. The progression from human adolescence to being a real grown up is painful, as we know. Thats just how America is...struggling to come to terms with itself, oh, so many hormones, working out if it really wants to solve its own abiding problems. Hard times for America. Necessary, obviously, but still hard. Good luck with yourselves...come back to us when you have worked yourselves out. Take a hundred years. You won't be missed. Your development as a civilisation is all about you. Leave us alone until you've done that. We will be just fine without you. We will welcome that new you in a hundred years. We may even throw a party to welcome you back to the real world.

Australian Politics:these are my people...hmmm. These are/were our national leaders...the elected folk of 24 million people...for fucks sake...Mother, I'm rooted. They make even Bill Shorten look ok, and that's no easy task. He may be a bully, when it comes to girls in pie shops not realising how magnificent he is...but at least ...well...at least he isn't one of those 2. As a supporter of Australian Labor all I can really say about Bill Shorten is...well, yes, he is a fuckwit...but he's OUR fuckwit. I dont think you can hope for more than that in Australian politics. Its a shallow muddy puddle. Its not a deep pool of talent we are talking about.
