Salutations from Djubuguli

As the world recovers from every newspaper (they still exist, well, barely) front page devoted to our American lust, not to mention, everyone's social media feeds - okay, we get it, life is all about impressing Uncle Sam. Let's turn our focus to the nation that gets no ones attention (Australia), unless of course you're obsessed with animals with pouches. Today is Invasion Day (aka Australia Day) in the arse end of the world, something tells me no front pages outside Australia are devoting even one sentence to this day, such is the hatred towards this convict colony. 

Anyway, for those not familiar with this part of the world, here's a mini detour of the city at the forefront of Australian settlement in 1788, aptly named after Thomas Townshend, 1st Viscount Sydney. Why name a city in honour of the native Aboriginal people (world's oldest civilisation dating back 50,000 years), when you can pay homage to a pasty Englishman with homicidal (and of course, racist) tendencies. 

Let's cut to the chase, the British settlers were a bunch of exterminators hell-bent on eradicating those that didn't share their skin tone. Hey America, you're not the only one with a "proud" pillaging history. Enjoy the scenery, but never forget the cruelty laid upon these lands by a people known for bad teeth, lack of cuisine and a sheer hatred of native inhabitants. Let's hope by next Australia Day, Sydney is renamed Djubuguli, its rightful indigenous name. Cue the backlash from "pure" Anglo-Saxon Aussies.

JRB all the way (note: 42nd POTUS is 4 years his junior)

The world has a new President, I think by now we all know that those outside the US lose more sleep over its predicament than those within. Case in point: the arse end of the world. During the Jan 6, 2021 shenanigans at the Capitol, the great racist land went into total meltdown, even people walking their dogs were talking about it. To be frank, I might have to leave Australia to get away from the hyperventilation over all things stars and stripes. To calm down conspiracy theorists, no, foreigners didn't cast a vote. You see general elections in any given country are inherently racist, they only allow the citizenry to vote. Long story short: 81,281,502 (as of writing) true patriots voted for the old white codger, Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. (JRB).

These United States are on the precipice this Inauguration Day. There are five questions (two foreign, three domestic) to pose to JRB, America's oldest commander-in-chief (at the ripe old age of 78 years and 61 days) and his new administration: 

1) Do you maintain the status quo by relying on the global terror power, saudi Arabia to do your dirty work in the Middle East? 

2) Do you denounce China for what it is, a a communist crony capitalist outpost that is committing genocide on a daily basis (refer to )? 

3) Is universal healthcare attainable? (even though you clearly think it's a pipe-dream). 

4) Will you be a consensus President? Even though 74,222,593 (as of writing) citizens clearly want him dead and prefer a homicidal narcissist. 

5) Will you be an executive order leader or use your razor thin senate majority to pass legislation through a bipartisan approach?

Next Inauguration Day (that's right people, I'm pressing fast-forward) is Jan 20, 2025, let's see if/how the above questions have been answered. One more thing, let's hope JRB is still alive! The average life expectancy of an American white male living in Washington, D.C. is 82 (JRB will be 82 years and 61 days when his term ends or is sworn in once again). For now, let's all shed a collective tear for the first states first president, about time Delaware (est. Dec 7, 1787).

Footnote: I understand that many suffer from short memories, so here's a mini recap of the six Presidents that came before. Listen carefully, you'll pick up a common theme (clue: it has to do with homicidal tendencies).
