Climate Change
https://nuclear.foe.org.au/waste-import/ Was this ever a good plan ?
Con - I will stay with Sea Lion thanks . It has been bestowed and I am not changing to Walrus ( although I like them ) .
"pursuing people with persistent requests for evidence or repeated questions, while maintaining a pretense of civility and sincerity. "
Funny that on this site and in this woke world such traits can be viewed as offensive !
"I am the egg man! I am the walrus! Goo goo g'joob!" You're not alone it seems. There's a raft of sea lions on here!
By the way, what does "woke world" mean, Hutchy 19?
So Hutchy is really John Lennon?
Oh man. Helter Skelter… !
The definition has , as I expect you know , changed substantially since the 1930's Conny .
I am using the word in it's current context which also has many meanings . You can use whatever definition suits you . To refer to it's original reference I think Critical Race Theory is a load of shit .
What do you think ?
The sign clearly says....
"Please dont not feed the Sealion"
He will just regurgitate everything back up.......
Hutchy, I think you need a big hug, my love.
And I think Eric Burdon was an animal!

Not that sort of guy Con .
As your attempt at entrapment was so poor I will name you Bad Trapper .
Also, clearly not an Apex predator. If you’re using any commonly used definition.
Facto vs hutch. This will be good.
Huzzah!
ah 'Sea lioning'.. Never heard that one but I like it.
Seems this site has been infected with the Hutchy19 strain. If the thread infection rate continues on it's current trajectory SN could become a cluster.
Health orders advice against responding to these posts. If you have you should immediately self medicate and get tested for blood pressure issues.
Symptons include constant rolling of the eyes , muttering 'what the faaark' while scrolling , severe shaking of the head and uncontrollable face palming.
If Sealioning is the act of faking good faith in a discussion until the poster’s true agenda is revealed, whereupon being unmasked the sea Lion will then morph back into their poison tongued self whilst simultaneously claiming to be a victim, then we are watching some world class sea Lioning unfold in real time.
And I’m not talking about Hutchy.
I’m with bonza, , sea lion v the walrus, it will be interesting.
@blowin , hahaha , agreed
If Facto is back SN is the better for it, mostly always entertaining especially at the expense of those who had it coming for taking themselves way too seriously.
Con - just read the article you posted re eggs other uses .
Quite clever combining eggs , sealions and walrus .
Looking forward to clashing tusks with you . I don't care if you are a facto persona .
California's power grid transition to renewable energy sources appears to be backfiring. The push into clean energy is not producing enough power to meet demand during hot summer days, and it's becoming harder for the Golden State to avoid rolling blackouts.
"A stunning new revelation in the state's top grid operator, California Independent System Operator, filing to US Department of Energy (DoE), titled "Request for Emergency Order Pursuant to Section 202(c) of the Federal Power Act," requested the federal government to declare an "electric reliability emergency" so it can use more fossil fuel power generation to prevent blackouts.
"An emergency order will allow the CAISO to dispatch additional generation that may be necessary for the CAISO to meet demand in the face of extremely challenging conditions including extreme heat waves, multiple fires, high winds, and various grid issues," the filing read."
California are running out of electricity and water when they need it most . Great planning !
Your almond 'latte' ain't helping the water crisis in Cali.
Cali's massive Almond crops are sucking river and ground water dry, are terrible for the soil, use enormous amounts of pesticides and herbicides that are killing bees and causing health problems in local communities.
If Chinatown were made today, Noah Cross would likely be an Almond oligarch.

"Forget it, Roker. It's Chinatown."
You are right Roker . They have had good crops for the last few years . This years one is in danger of being damaged as they need a lot of water before harvesting . With Craig's view of another La Nina coming next year may be worse .
That is why I bought in on an Australian Almond grower a few months ago .
Hutch, surely you've been here long enough now to know that you can't believe anything the other old scarred sea lions are barking about? And yes, there have been a raft of sea lions on SN before you arrived.
Sea lions are very social beasts that like to congregate in numbers. 3 here on SN at least. Maybe more now. I don't know.
All hail the sea lion and other pinnipeds!
(But let's not get started on the ultracrepidarian genus)
Getting slightly back on the climate change topic, I remember years ago being harassed out at sea by a huge Antarctic elephant seal. In Exmouth, WA!
Who'd a thunk it? Tenuous link I know but still amasing I'm sure you'd agree.
Actually, while I'm here, and talking all things seal related, has anyone seen Supafreak and the Flex Seal guy in the same room together?
Only new to the site Con . That's why I have been suspected of being from facto genus .
Happy to reply to you even when you don't know what you are talking about .
What is your definition of being harassed ? Maybe in a wetsuit you look like a female seal ?

Here’s a recent photo of me Conny , lockdowns are a killer.
"Australia has wind resources, which are good enough to provide baseload electricity generation from wind,"

A quick mood test for you Conny 
hehe
Supaf, you may not know it but your meme is actually based on a real life method of finding the complement of any colour by staring at a colour swatch long enough for its complement to emerge around the edge of the swatch. It’s a method used by artists because complement colours make the all important neutral greys that in turn make the thousands of tonal and colour variations that exist in real life (nature) and art.
ps your meme omitted the option of side splitting funny, something facto can be!
You know Hutchy, you're not far wrong! Harassing man, woman and beast on land and sea. Bellowing forlornly in the night. The big ol' fellow was out of his depth, scared and alone, and just looking for love in all the wrong places.
Perhaps much like yourself on here.
And talking about when you don't know what you are talking about, forget your "woke world", Hutchy, have you heard the term cumber-world?
And don't get me wrong, Supafreak, I love the Flex Seal guy. Who doesn't? Upbeat, enthusiastic, always looking for new and improved ways to miraculously fix things. What's not to love and admire?
Con - was just trying to show you I knew the definition of ultracrepidarian .
I am married and not out looking for love in other places . As Paul Newman said " why go out for hamburger when you have steak at home ?"
Guy said “ps your meme omitted the option of side splitting funny, something facto can be! “ 
Nice work supafreak, funny
@guy , not my work but I do do love Larson , don’t mind taking the piss out of myself or friendly banter with others . Can’t take ourselves to seriously eh Guy S
I love Paul Newman. The Hustler! Hud! Cool Hand Luke! Slapshot! Fort Apache, The Bronx! The Color of Money!
That steak quote though is interesting in this context.

Does it all matter? No.
Con- Why do you get pleasure in bursting balloons ?
Don't be such a smart ar.. !
Hutchy, what balloon has burst, love?

You really should get your persistent rectal discharge seen to “new to social media” sea lion
Supafreak wrote:@indo , from what I’ve seen they don’t fill them in , they simply turn the pumps off and let the water rise . You wouldn’t want to drink that water . Surely you have flown over and looked down at all the pretty lakes ( Old mines ) with funny coloured water . Like I said it’s cheaper to renew the lease , no need to rehab the land .
hmm i think my idea of how they were rehabilitated them came from maybe what Adani have to do or something, i looked into it all a bit more and there seems to be various ways they rehabilitate, yeah they often dont fill the whole thing in, they just smooth down the edges so safer, seems to be quite a few examples in Australia though of rehabilitation, id expect as time goes on it would be harder and harder not too.
No dont recall those lakes, use to fly to Indo from QLD too

@indo , you see them more on the perth to hedland run , I never worked mining itself, construction doing earthworks and expansion of mining infrastructure like when they would change to wet process plus a shit load of railway duplication , tailing dams , new ship berths. The only rehab we ever did was on ground we had stored and used as stockpiles . Pretty simple to have a dozer go over it then nature takes it course and comes back quickly. Actual mine rehab like taking away all the infrastructure and such from what Ive observed at some old disused mines is sometimes walked away from and nothings done , just renewed lease end of problem. Ive driven the length of railway from hedland to redmont roughly 200klms half way point to Newman, the amount of crap lying around is unreal . Many old tin mines in this area. Probably not worked for 30 + years

Crikey Supafreak........I haven't seen ya in pert near 40 years mate, but great to see you have lost weight mate........Good to see you still got the same old wetty..
Nice......
@ indo , I did a quick search on abandoned mines . https://www.dmp.wa.gov.au/Geological-Survey/Abandoned-Mines-Program-2929...
@megzee , thanks mate , work from home in lockdown if possible they said , has its pro’s and cons
https://ibb.co/YWbNw7w
Here ya go Superfreak.......first year we were at the bluff together......82' I recall...
Don't worry, I have put on about 3 stone since then......[ Still need to hold the Trevally though....}
Dam you climate change......give me some girth!!!!
The requirements to clean up for a new mine are very different to even 5-10 years ago .
The land does come back very quickly ( can't fill in big holes ) as proved by the incredible come back from Chernobyl .
@ megzee, yeah how good was the fishing there , just a tip that I was given in regards to photo upload , if you scroll to HTML full linked the picture will appear rather than link . 
Always a pleasure chatting megzee
Yeah.....great days
Thanks for the photo tip SF........but I am generally a lazy prick when it comes to computers.....plus some of my stuff is in my vault of life....so sharing it is not overly important...
Same Super.....always grand to chat and contribute, however sometimes I think it's not worth putting a point or opinion across because it basically gets ignored, disputed, crucified, or lately......trolled to the point of anguish...
If everyone [ some ] lightened up a bit and absorbed someone else's opinion or point, we might all actually remember that surfing is a brotherhood........
I really respect a lot of fellow surfers on this site, but character assassination and horrid vitriol is poison at best....not only for the sender, but for the recipient as well.....
Have a great weekend mate
Keep the meme's coming......a good laugh and inner smile beats frowning and anger by miles.......
Cheers megzee, it would be great to catch up when you finally make it back and I understand where you’re coming from in regards to how we can all respond differently . 
Perfect mate....true words...
Now I'm off to shave and pluck a few rouge nose hairs and those dark curly long lockdown eyebrow ones......
I'm on a promise tonight......gotta look 40 [ somehow]
Bloody climate change again.....
Pluck carefully Megzee.
Watch out for the longest hairs in the body, the ones the run from your eyelashes to your datehole.
That’s why when you pull one from your bum your eyes water.
