I'm just a bludging student with a part time job, so no tax cut for me (unless I actually get a job with my degree which isn't a million miles from possible).

My favourite adams thing was his long range sex hypnosis

http://blog.dilbert.com/post/136330131311/hypnotizing-you-to-have-the-best-new-years-day

quote:


Warning: This post involves real hypnosis on the reader, and it is intended for adults only. Do NOT read further unless you have already read parts 1-3. 


...

You know I already told the bedroom-submissives reading this blog to obey my orders tonight and find a way to thank me. This group is quivering in anticipation and has my permission to enjoy the evening. You are my favorites. Be good.

For those of you who felt anti-aroused reading this blog series, I recognized your brain wiring as the no-by-reflex personality type, and in Part 2 I hypnotized you to NOT enjoy your New Year’s celebration, or the following day, with deeply satisfying orgasms. If you enjoy yourself sexually during this holiday, it means I am controlling you with my hypnosis, and this group doesn’t want that. So keep your sex drive to yourself. If you can.

...

Most of you have begun to feel the change. My email (Dilbertcartoonist@gmail.com) is starting to fill with stories from readers who have had spontaneous orgasms since Part 1 – because they feel my intention – as you do now. For perspective, about 20% of the public would normally respond to my suggestions immediately. The rest of you require repetition. And you are getting it.


...

Regular readers know that I used my background in hypnosis to accurately predict nine-out-nine political events in 2015, while most political professionals got zero right. That makes me the best political pundit of the year.

Actually, that probably makes me the best political predictor in the history of Earth. Nine out of nine – and none of the predictions were obvious or based on trajectory.

...


You might also know some of my back story, and wonder how someone can become a cartoonist with no experience, no training, and no artistic talent. The answer is that I did it the same way I predicted nine-out-of-nine political events in 2015. Persuasion is a learned skill.

...


This week I helped you focus on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s day. Some of you took that opportunity to plan ahead so you could improve your odds of an amazing and orgasmic send-off to 2015.

Some of you directed a spouse or lover to this blog series to make sure you are on the same page tonight and tomorrow. That also improved your odds, but you don’t yet realize how much. 

This week, most of you had multiple thoughts about the suggestions I put in your minds. Perhaps something in the environment triggered those thoughts, as I said would happen. Or maybe the thoughts seemed to come from nowhere. Your thoughts triggered small but automatic releases of happy-sex chemistry in your body, by reflex. Everyone is different, so you might not notice the difference yet.

Science tells us...

And when the coffee took too long and a customer said, "They must have gone to the farm to milk the cow!" It might be true. Therefore I propose all lactating dole bludgers be hooked up to expressing machines in order to make milk for coffees. So that the supply of milk is closer to inner city cafes. Give the taxpayers back something already you scum.

ahhh fuck its the rats again
Two university students being sued for allegedly racist Facebook posts have launched a complaint of their own, claiming the Australian Human Rights Commission discriminated against them because they were white heterosexual males.

Calum Thwaites and Jackson Powell are subject to a lawsuit by Queensland University of Technology administration officer Cindy Prior. They claim the AHRC breached their human rights by failing to notify them of the complaint against them for more than a year.

he two are demanding an apology from the AHRC, compensation for legal costs understood to already be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars and that the commission change the way it deals with complaints.

In the complaint documents their lawyer, Tony Morris QC, claims the two were "at all times treated by the AHRC with absolute, unequivocal and flagrant indifference, disregard, contumacy, hauteur, disdain, vilipendency and insouciance".

He argues they were treated in that way because they were white male heterosexuals who were not active members of any religious sect or trade union and were not generally politically outspoken.

The case stems from a May 2013 incident in which Ms Prior asked three students to leave an indigenous-only computer lab at the university, prompting one of them, Alex Wood, who is also being sued, to post, "Just got kicked out of the unsigned Indigenous computer room. QUT stopping segregation with segregation?" on Facebook.

The post attracted a string of comments, some of which were critical of the existence of the indigenous-only lab, including one from Mr Powell who wrote, "I wonder where the white supremacist lab is..".

Mr Thwaites has denied being behind a post referring to "ITT N-----s".

Ms Prior is not mentioned by name in any of the posts but went on leave following the incident and is suing the three students and the university for almost $250,000 in lost wages and general damages, plus future economic loss.

She later claimed she felt unsafe leaving her home due to fears of being verbally abused and was unable to return to work in a role requiring face-to-face contact with white people.

Her complaint was initially handled by the AHRC, which tried to resolve the matter through conciliation with QUT.

But the students were not notified of the complaint until just days before a final conference in August 2015, despite the matter being with the AHRC for more than a year.

The AHRC terminated the conciliation process a few weeks after that conference, paving the way for the current lawsuit and the students involved claim they were denied the opportunity to have the case thrown out while it was before the commission.

The AHRC has not commented on the case directly but says respondents are sometimes not notified of complaints at the request of the complainant.

It also said that it will sometimes ask an organisation, such as an employer, to notify individual respondents, and added that it was not uncommon for the organisation to negotiate a settlement with the complainant without the individual respondents being involved.
