Facebook algorithm now heavily prioritizes ads and its suggested content over non paying posts from pages like this, friends and followers causing a dramatic drop in visibility so it’s getting closer to saying goodbye to this particular page !!!!
Maybe good timing and meant to be !!!!

Maybe the Earth is flat ????

Where would the Sun go at night???

That theory would make sunrise an illusion !!!!

Conversation lately has been about how The world feels like a cartoon because of digital media,
online communication, and how exaggerated public figures constantly favor bright, loud, and unreal presentations over quiet reality !!!!

Political debates often work like cartoons, focusing on good versus evil instead of hard facts.

Did Wile E. Coyote ever catch
the Road Runner in Looney Tunes ???

Bees, Dogs in suits , Meerkat’s and other types of animals selling you insurance etc !!

People who yell the loudest, just like cartoon characters getting the most attention , we’ve all experienced them !!!

Facebook filters change our faces into smooth, cartoon style, or exaggerated versions of ourselves !!

emojis replace real human expressions !!

AI-generated images flood the internet, making real photography look fake and unreal !!!!

Who writes a resume or poetry anymore ???

Maybe the answer is blowin in the wind but it just might depend on how hard that wind blows !!!

I reckon Bugs Bunny worked for Scrooge McDuck as he was the perfect politicion and was much smarter than Elmer Fudd and consistently outwitted him !!!!

Guess the bottom line is You can’t have your cake or everything we like playing with at the moment and eat it !!!!

Bet there’s more people that want both !!!! Hypocrite is that still a word or has it been banned ???

Maybe don’t fight it as it’s going to get bigger just like the Sun Today !!!

Wonder if Elon is making a Big On/Off switch to control the Sun ????

Wanted to Buy - Matches and Candles
For Sale - Tin Hat

Stop Complaining it’s Friday !!!

Fridays !!! Wonder what the First Friday was like ????

Just another day of surviving , foraging and sleeping , then along comes some Norse Goddess called F***g and starts a trend !!!!

That most probably started people winging and complaining how things had changed from last Friday and there wasn’t enough days in the week !!!

Now there’s always something to complain about !!

Everything changes over time !!!

Maybe once the changes were real ???

Bit like Technology, Just imagine when some nutcase thought it would be a good idea to invent an engine and plonk it in a bicycle or buggy !!!

Impractical, Dangerous, Noise Pollution, Unsafe, Class Distinction, and What about the Horse???

Guess nothing has changed ???

Soon it will be “Bloody Robot “ you just can’t trust em to do anything right !!!

All because of some Goddess by the name of F***g who thought she was better than everyone else and have a day named after her !!!!

Maybe that’s where the saying “F***g it “ comes from when Odin complained ??

“Stop the Chop “

New day new ideas 💡!!!
All in the name of progress

It’s been coming for sometime

Some things just don’t seem to fit in !!!

Maybe a good idea in their country of origin but !!!!

A bit like some people I suppose??

Pepper Trees !!!!!

Most likely brought into the country by some Colonists during the 19th century primarily as ornamental shade trees to eat their cucumber sandwiches under !!!

Bit like rabbits 🤔

Well time has come to say goodbye
They are Old and Sgraggly , ah a bit like Me !!!!

So if anyone wants some pepper trees they are yours for free , Sorry can’t deliver !!!

Please don’t protest , chain yourself to my ute , yell abuse or start a page against me as it’s clearly classified as an Essential Infrastructure and must go ahead in the name of Progress !!!!

It’s going to create jobs , benefits, no mosquitoes all for one person !!! ME

No real benefit in having a Community Information Session as it’s going to happen anyway and by the time I organise and have the session i could have had the trees removed !!!

I will be having a Talkfest after the event !! Invitation only BYO

Ah , But then there’s an empty space !!!

Oh, and don’t throw eggs , just leave em at the door and I’ll throw em !!!!

How many times have you heard “I am bored “ ???

Same place, Same time, But !!!!!

Is it Boring ??

Some days feel like Groundhog Day, But !!!

Repeat Performance ?? Most crowds stand up clap for more at a concert etc !!!

Maybe treat each day as that New Performance ??

Maybe that morning repetition is a spark or trigger to shift a thought , memory , song , mood into something new !!

How many times has that Song or Tune stayed in your mind already ????

Think of a favourite song !!!!

“Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away “

If you’re bored go and count gravel !!
Or you could get creative !!!

Must stop taking that photo from the same spot , it’s becoming boring 😴 !!!

There you go !!!!

You just don’t know what the day brings !!

Talking to a couple from the USA today and asked what brought you to Tailem Bend ?

Answer , The Bend Drag strip and Tin Elephant !!!

Google definitely works Worldwide !!

Amazing what or who has written about you that you have no idea of until someone shows you !!!!

I reckon there is an old saying , "Never write if you can speak; never speak if you can nod; never nod if you can wink." !!!!

I explained that the retail shop is now closed and now just a private collection That people can view !!

Looks like that “ ”
does get around !!

Guess theres is always 2 sides to a story ???

“leaving behind a crumbling "palace" or shed, for some far flung relative to clear out. just how insignificant their life has been and their impact on others is nothing more than the dust collecting on the shelves filled with other people's junk.”
