Yeah, so I was called Albert Speer the other day.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I mean, not out but you know, just casually like, in a conversation, like \u2018get to work with the design + architecture and stuff\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

The best bit was the follow up,\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I said, what do you mean?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I mean, because really I did think I just misunderstood.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Well he said, \u2019the alternative not being nice.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

Like what I said?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018Like being shot.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

Yeah, that was the fucking icing on the cake. Not just mushroom clouds in your coffee but you know, the allusions that if I don\u2019t get back to work, I could be shot.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

These are the guys that have promoted Yankeeville, under the cover of guise, that are still on the payroll and have spent a lifetime calling out the Nazi\u2019s for running concentration camps – fucking Oscars for that shit – and they are threatening me over a phone line to get back to work or I would be shot.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Oh you\u2019re a fucking genius.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Australia you\u2019re standing in it.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Too fucking right there.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2014\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Nah, it gets better than that.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

God\u2019s honour.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The very same phone call, the very same human, says \u2018well you can accuse me of many things, but I am always nice to everyone\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

Seriously, this dickhead must think I am living on a planet in Shitsville or something because this guy spends most of his time gossiping about people and taking them down.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018Yeah, if that is the case why do you bastards spend most of your time bitching about powers that are not in your orbit?\u2019\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Like Russia, dopey.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Or should we publish the Twitter feed? Cause that\u2019s really complex stuff and worthy of our time.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018They are idiots. We hate them.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

Oh fuckin\u2019 goodonya.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2014<\/span><\/p>\n

Must have pissed someone off because a phone call like that pretty much lets you know about the crowd they are rolling with.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It sure as shit ain\u2019t my crowd.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Dickheads.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

—<\/span><\/p>\n

I thought the men loving men thing was sort of over in the town.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Apparently not.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Can talk about each other in glowing terms all fucking day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

‘Your brother is so amazing’<\/span><\/p>\n

Oh, get a room.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

—<\/span><\/p>\n

If I don’t get to call a deceased male war hero Albert Speer or Ana I am seriously going to call in the Female Cops.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2014\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I am always nice to everyone.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

These boys are having a good tug.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Rack off.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You just play dirty while getting money from big powers and then get awards!<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t fucking start me today.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2014\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

When I am re-birthed, so help me God I will make money from talking myself up and pissing on the little kids while talking Fair Go Australia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who makes these people?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Moral discussion on AI is clearly AWOL.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So that\u2019s handy.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2014<\/span><\/p>\n

Wait, let me guess.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You are Morally Clean and Able while destroying someone else.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s some fucking balls.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2014 <\/span><\/p>\n

Can\u2019t wait for them to spend hours talking about Freeing Julian Assange.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2018Ah Dickhead, didn\u2019t you ring me and threaten me the other day?\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2014\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So, I just lay down in the Sun.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Plopped myself on the balcony and soaked that shit up.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Fuck \u2018em Joe.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
