Random and inconsistent snippets from an unstructured mind. My truth may not be your truth. A fact is a fact only by standing on it.
It can't fall down, there is nothing holding it up...
Except some sort of capitalist exploitation. The writer is a 3rd generation Indigenous Australian. Not, i might add, Aboriginal - two different concepts.

Um, sometimes my premature wry humour is overwhelmed by the truly enormous tragedy in Japan.
OK, but when the disaster hits you close to home, having a sense of humour helps a lot, and that’s an Aussie gift that would be worth exporting to areas needing help, if it were only possible.
Are you an admirer of Ayn Rand (referring to your deleted post which Google Reader has thoughtfully preserved for me to recheck)? She is way off to the loony far right, in my judgment. However I would not defend this view, or debate the topic.
Am i an admirer of Ayn Rand? Dunno, never met her. Am i an admirer of her 'political' views? Probably not .. but it's been a long time since I read anything about her .. really only remember the title of one of her books "Atlas Shrugged" ..
'Gaia' shrugged is a different concept.
One of the other reasons that i removed it is that I read an article in the SMH questioning the veracity - in this age of 'electronic' manipulation and 'photoshop' - of some of the images flooding the internet. Yes, i pinched it from the msnbc series, but have yet to examine its provenance.

.. though still like the post title "Noh nukes" .. heh.
I did Noh-tice it. Also relieved about your (non)association with Ayn Rand.
