Bone head Nat MP for Tauranga Sam Uffindell follows Luxon’s indian worshipping script. Another National idiot who needs to be binned. Sam says he’s sick of Indians being slagged off. He says that Indians are an “inspiration to New Zealanders”, and any NZ’s with concerns are those who don’t want to work 3 jobs, seven days a week 12 hours a day. “NZ’ers don’t want to work hard”. Yeah we don’t want to work 3 jobs, 12 hours a day Sam you dope. He’s so retarded he doesn’t understand that this is insulting to kiwis, National want us to all live like 3rd worlders, and if you don’t want to - then you are the problem. Look its clear, Uffindell was smeared with to the whole school bully story, it’s obvious he clobbered himself over the head with a bed leg, which explains why the guy talks like he’s had a lobotomy. Sam says the NZ welcomes all Indians to NZ and we love all of them. How many Indians work under the table Sam? I’m telling you know - THOUSANDS. You bring in scores of poor people from a highly corrupt country with a culture of scammery and dishonesty guess what happens. NZ is quickly moving from a high trust society to a low trust shit hole. P.S : The Indian fraudsters below are all from Sam Bonehead’s neck of the woods.👇 Ajaypal Singh — Sole director/shareholder of Saran Contracting Ltd and Gurukirpa Contracting Ltd (kiwifruit labour contractors) more than $57 million in unpaid taxes (mainly GST and PAYE). This is one of the largest single business tax-related collapses in 2025, paid himself millions left the country. Amandeep Singh — Sole director/shareholder in Bay of Plenty kiwifruit labour contractor/recruiter). Company liquidated in 2026 with 2 million owed to IRD and staff Harbhajan Singh Kahlon — Director of a kiwifruit labour contractor. GST-related fraud and PAYE evasion charges (total tax evaded >$700,000) used sub-contractors as “invoice writers” in an elaborate scheme. Gurpreet Singh — Bay of plenty orchardist (kiwifruit/horticulture, arrived on a student visa). Sentenced in Tauranga District Court for evasion charges (total ~$683,000–$700,000)

Strong legs are the foundations of a stable posture, yet many let theirs weaken over time. You lose your ability to move and stand upright. Much of my work with chronic pain clients involves strengthening the legs. This video shows 8 essential lower body motions: 1- Hip Extensions Standing upright involves straightening your torso to align it with your lower body, an extension of your hips executed by your Glutes and Hamstrings. The problem is you sit on these muscles all day, weakening them over the years to the point where they fail to do their job. Your lower back picks up the slack against its will and becomes overworked. I'll start chronic pain clients with Hip Bridges on the floor to ensure everything is balanced, then progress to Hip Thrusts and eventually Standing exercises like the Romanian Deadlift. As for the Deadlift off the floor, those are great if you can access a barbell or kettlebell. - Hip Bridge (0:05) - Hip Thrust (0:11) - Romanian Deadlift (0:17) - Deadlift (0:23) 2- Split Squats Split Squats are excellent for strengthening the knees. In the case of a chronic pain client, I use them to stretch the quad and Hip Flexors of the back leg, which are often extremely stiff due to sitting. This stiffness makes the body collapse forward and is often the limiting factor when people try this exercise for the first time. I'll start someone with the Front Foot elevated because it's easier on the front leg and gives a great stretch, then progress to flat and rear foot elevated. - Front foot elevated (0:30) - Flat (0:36) - Rear-foot elevated (0:42.2) 3- Lunges Lunges are the dynamic version of the Split Squat. Besides being excellent for strengthening your leg muscles, the one thing I love about this exercise is that it teaches you how to brace yourself as your foot lands. Many people lack the core strength to absorb an impact. Lunges develop that shock absorption capacity, especially when done with weights. Ensure you have mastered the Split Squats before doing them, and use different directions to target your muscles differently. - Forward (0:48) - Back (0:54.7) - Side (1:07) 4- Squats The king of all exercises is crucial for your ascension. The vertical motion improves your ability to overcome the world's weight crashing down upon you. It's also an amazing Glute and Quad stretch in the bottom position. I'll start chronic pain clients with the bodyweight variation before progressing them to weighted and eventually one-legged, also known as Pistol Squats. Doing one leg at a time is one of the best ways to balance your body's left and right sides from head to toe. - Body weight (1:12.5) - Loaded (1:19) - Pistol (1:25.5) 5- Step-ups Step-ups are amongst my favorite one-sided exercises to strengthen the Glutes and Quads. They are excellent for improving the stability of your hips and abdominal muscles. Use the Front and Lateral variations to maximize your results. - Front (1:31.5) - Lateral (1:38) 6 - Leg Curls Leg Curls strengthen the lower attachment of your Hamstrings. They are an integral part of my knee and lower back recovery programs because many people are weak due to sitting. I'll have chronic pain clients use a towel to create muscle resistance, though you can do them standing to get some much-needed blood flow. The best way to benefit from this exercise is by using an exercise ball or a machine at the gym. - Standing (1:43) - Towel (1:49) - Exercise ball (1:55.4) - Machine (2:02.1) 7- Adductions The inner thigh muscles become problematic when people sit with their legs crossed. They either get stiff or weak depending on whether you cross one leg over the other or with your foot on the opposite knee. I love Copenhagen Planks to restore the balance in your adductors. - Knee-bent (2:08.8) - Straight-leg (2:14) 8- Calf Raises The ankles are the cornerstone of your posture because they affect the alignment of every other joint above. Strong Calves are essential to their stability, yet many omit them from their workouts. Standing Calf Raises also strengthen the knees from behind. Doing the Donkey variation, you'll feel an intense stretch from the knee to the ankle. Seated Calf Raises work a different lower leg muscle essential to pump blood back up from your feet. - Standing (2:20.5) - Donkey (2:26.6) - Seated (2:33.3) Include these 8 types of motions in your routine as an insurance policy against serious mobility problems down the line. Keeping your legs strong ensures a stable posture and quality movements, two crucial factors for a high quality of life.

So this whole ugly beef really started because Kendrick was given the Big 3 moment and he publicly rejected it with “it’s just big me.” Kendrick was just refusing a hierarchy. Now there is rumors of Kendrick being on a J. Cole album with Drake after all this supposed “culture war.” So what was the point of all that division? all that moral grandstanding? I guess it was just about positioning. I believe, the industry needed a counterweight to Drake, someone they can market as the “pure” alternative, and Kendrick was it. Here’s why I think Drizzy should never do a project with Kendrick nearby: When Drake shows up- he brings the world with him-streams, playlists, headlines, and attention. If Drake were on an album with Kendrick, Drake would activate the culture, but the story would become “Kendrick outshined him,” even if Drake made the actual hits. That’s how narratives work. Drake would create the success, and Kendrick would get the credit, just like what happened in the beef. That power trip beef by UMG was all about narrative laundering. So Drake staying away is the smart move. Without Drake, Kendrick has to stand on his music alone, no giant spotlight, no built-in villain, no automatic attention from being next to the biggest star in the genre. Look at that Playboi Carti project: no Drake, no real peak, no lasting impact. And that’s exactly what Kendrick’s team doesn’t want tested, again. At the end of the day, it’s simple: Drake doesn’t need Kendrick to win. Kendrick needs Drake to matter. And that imbalance is what this whole “beef” was really built on. 🦉

Dear friends, I turn 43 today. Thank you for all your warm wishes on this day. I took a leave from hospital today to be with family and unwind. I started doing this every birthday after a near fatal crash in 2021 (at a time when I was wholly married to my work) and everything changed since then. I decided to smell the flowers, and touch the grass, but also do quality work as a professional. Yes work life balance is possible. It is not a myth. As a clinical doctor sub-specialist, there are many things I changed for the better. I stopped being a workaholic. I found that seeing 20 patients a day with utmost dedication and care was far more satisfying than seeing 100 quickly. It also helped me improve my patients lives. I learned to prescribe less, listen more, treat when needed and advice lifestyle changes. It is now more than 3 years since I have touched alcohol. So that I can authoritatively treat my patients and advice them with what is right. I stopped meeting medical pharma representatives and accepting to go for every medical conference and sponsored meeting. This actually improved my clinical knowledge because I started to improve myself, on my own. I read more... I became that student I once was. I became my most important competition. Everyday I try to be a better doctor for my patients - by following science and evidence and updating myself. I started to love myself, because of which I started to take care of myself. From finding time for daily work outs (not to develop a 6-pack, but to be physically active to improve overall health), keeping aside time to unwind, and saying no to additional work and over indulging in commitments - because of which, I found time to feed my passions - music, book writing and movies. My first book (non-fiction) is now in proof-reading (hopefully will be out next year). And I started working on my new book projects. Bound India (Bound) and Tara Khandelwal will be representing my future literary works. At some point in the future, I want to write so much more (not like these days when I have to burn midnight oil to get through a chapter after an exhausting day at work). I stopped believing in publish or perish. This is a myth. Academic life is important. I am still active in it - but I choose my battles wisely. I do not get anxious or depressed if I cannot publish medical papers consistently. I decided to publish medical papers if I find them worthy of spending time, money and effort on. This gave me the option of indulging in public health research projects (like Citizens Protein Project) and spend more time with MESH ( This was far more satisfying that wasting money to publish medical science that only catered to my peer-circles and not the public. Today, I had a good breakfast with my wife, and we decided to get inked (my fourth and fifth tattoos), got some choux pastry instead of traditional 'cake cutting' and worked more on my new book (a semi-autobiographical medical college memoir). I thank you all for the great support and love in here... and I hope I can do more for my patients, their family, my family and the public at large... as long as I can. ...and thanks also to my trolls and loud but irrelevant critics in whose minds I live rent free.

A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Fixing Heroes As we celebrate the successful summits of Kangchenjunga this season, I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to our incredible fixing team who made this possible. This year has been particularly challenging, with a backlog of summits and the notoriously tough conditions that Kangchenjunga presents. Despite these obstacles, our dedicated fixing team worked tirelessly, carrying 11km of ropes, tons of snow bars, screws, rock pitons, and all the essential equipment needed to prepare the route. Everything was taking three times longer due to deep snow and harsh weather conditions. To be very accurate, (*I measured on my second summit attempt, the vertical height left to summit was less than 50 meters and the rope required was only 250m - which we had also left on the point of turn around so others could use.) It's crucial that we acknowledge the hard work and sacrifices of these unsung heroes. Today, I want to shine a light on Kanchenjunga fixing team: 1. Sandip Gurung (Climbing guide) 2. Sandesh Sherpa (Climbing guide) 3. Ramesh Gurung (Climbing guide/Cameraman) 4. Lakpa Tenjen (Turkey) (Climbing guide) 5. Phuri Kittar Sherpa (Climbing guide) 6. Buddha Bahadur Gurung (Climbing guide) 7. Ngima Dawa Sherpa (Climbing guide) 8. Rinji Sherpa (Climbing guide)9. Mitra Bahadur Tamang (Climbing guide) I've seen many posts celebrating the summit, but it’s heartbreaking that the efforts of these remarkable individuals often go unnoticed. Your dedication and resilience are what keep the spirit of adventure alive. I’m proud and lucky to lead such an incredible team. I have seen their work first hand through and through. Even on the day we turned around, it was tough but I chose safety over anything else. So, here's to you, the legends of the mountain! Thank you for your unwavering support and hard work. Without you, this season's success wouldn’t have been possible. My hat goes off to each and every one of you! #kanchenjunga #eliteexped #ropefixingteam #mountainheroes #Nepal #bigmountaincommunity #sevensummits #14peaks #Nimsdai

🚨BENEFITS OF DEDICATED BUS LANES🚨🇷🇼 🚍1. FASTER &RELIABLE TRAVEL •Buses avoid traffic congestion •Travel time becomes shorter and more predictable. •This improves schedule adherence and reduces passenger uncertainty. •Fewer delays, better punctuality. 📊 Example: •Before: Travel time varies between 20–45 minutes due to traffic •After: Travel time becomes 20–25 minutes consistently. 👉 Plan your journey with confidence ⏱️ 2. REDUCED WAITING TIME •Faster circulation allows buses to complete routes quicker. •Operators can provide more frequent service using the same fleet. •Less waiting at stops 📊 Example: •Before: One bus every 20 minutes → average waiting time ≈ 10 minutes •After: Faster trips allow one bus every 10 minutes → average waiting time ≈ 5 minute 👌Waiting time is cut by 50%, without adding more buses—just by improving speed and circulation. 👉 Save time every day. 🌍 3. ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS •Encourages people to shift from private cars to public transport. •Reduces traffic congestion, fuel consumption, and emissions. •Supports cleaner urban mobility and climate goals. 📊 Example: •Before: 1,000 people travel using 700 cars (average 1.4 persons/car) •After: 500 people shift to buses → only 350 cars remain. 👌350 fewer cars on the road → significant reduction in fuel use and emissions 👉 Move toward sustainable mobility 💰 4. COST EFFICIENCY •Higher speeds mean buses can serve more trips per day. •Better fleet utilization reduces the need for additional buses. •Lower operational costs per passenger. 📊 Example: •Before: One bus completes 4 trips/day •After: With faster lanes, same bus completes 6 trips/day •To serve 60 trips: Before → 15 buses needed After → 10 buses needed 👌 5 buses saved, reducing fuel, maintenance, and staffing costs 👉 Efficient & financially sustainable 💰 5. INCREASED PASSENGER CAPACITY •One dedicated bus lane can carry far more people than a car lane. •Moves large volumes efficiently, especially during peak hours. •Ideal for high-demand corridors. 📊 Example: •Car lane: 1,000 cars/hour × 1.5 persons ≈ 1,500 people/hour •Bus lane: 60 buses/hour × 50 passengers ≈ 3,000 people/hour 👌 Bus lane carries 2× more people using the same road space 👉 Move people, not just vehicles 🛣️ 6. IMPROVED ROAD SAFETY •Separate buses from traffic •Fewer conflicts & accidents •Safer for pedestrians & cyclists 📊 Example: •Before: 10 conflict points (cars + buses mixing at intersections and lanes) •After: Reduced to 4 conflict points with separated lanes 👉 Accidents drop, for example, from 20/year → 12/year (40% reduction) 🏙️ 7. SUSTAINABLE URBAN GROWTH •Supports compact city development:People live closer to transit •Reduces car dependency: More people choose buses •Better land use. 📊 Example: •Before: 70% of people rely on cars •After: Public transport share increases to 50% 👌 Less need for parking and wide roads → land can be used for housing, shops, and public spaces 👉 🏙️ Build smarter cities 📈 8. ECONOMIC PRODUCTIVITY •Less time in traffic •More time for work & life •Better access to jobs & services 📊 Example: •Before: 10,000 commuters lose 30 minutes/day in traffic Total lost time = 5,000 hours/day •After: Time lost reduced to 15 minutes/day Total lost time = 2,500 hours/day 👌 2,500 hours saved daily → more time for work and economic activity 👉 📈 Boost city efficiency ⚖️ 9. SOCIAL EQUITY •Provides faster, affordable mobility for all income groups. •Especially benefits those who rely on public transport daily. •Promotes inclusive urban development. 📊 Example: •Before: Low-income workers spend 90 minutes commuting •After: Travel time reduced to 60 minutes 👌 30 minutes saved daily, improving access to jobs and quality of life 👌 Affordable bus fares benefit 100% of users, not just car owners 👉 ⚖️ A system that works for everyone. 👏 Dedicated bus lanes: A simple solution with powerful impact.

Here’s EVERYTHING you need to know about warm up sets: Most people are doing warm up sets ALL wrong and they’re costing themselves from an efficiency/effectiveness standpoint as a result Warm ups are designed to A) guard against injury B) prepare you for your working sets Warm up sets should NEVER be taken in close proximity to failure…most should see you leaving 6, 7, 8+ reps in reserve (the lone exception to this = sets performed for 1-2 reps @ ~90+ of your intended working weight) This is in STARK CONTRAST to working sets which should all end around 0-2 RIR You probably need about ~2 warm up sets before your first exercise or two depending on the specifics of your programming Here is an example of a typical warm up protocol: - a 5-10 minute brisk walk on the treadmill (optional) - 50% of your working weight on your first exercise for ~12 reps (mandatory) - 75% of your working weight on your first exercise for ~6 reps (mandatory) - 90% of your working weight on your first exercise for ~2 reps (optional) After you complete the working sets for your first exercise, you may want to repeat the last 3 steps prior to performing your next exercise IF it is an antagonist exercise (Ex: Lat Pull-Down after Sternal Pecs Machine Press OR Seated Leg Curls after Hack Squats) After that, you probably don’t need any additional warm up sets unless you are just using them as “primers” (sets to make sure your movement pattern / the machine settings / etc. are on point) - If doing a PUSH workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise only (assuming it’s a multi joint movement) - If doing a PULL workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise only (assuming it’s a multi joint movement) - If doing an UPPER workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise and 1-2 warm up sets before my second exercise (assuming they’re antagonist multi joint movements) - If doing an LOWER workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise and 1-2 warm up sets before my second exercise (assuming they’re antagonist multi joint movements) - If doing a FULL BODY workout, I’m probably using 2-3 warm up sets before my first exercise, 1-2 warm up sets before my second exercise, and may even 1-2 warm up sets before my third and fourth exercises as well (assuming they’re all multi joint movements — antagonist push/pull movements for both upper & lower) (As you can see, the major downside of FULL BODY workouts is often the excess warm up time needed — this is why they work best for beginners much of the time) General rule of thumb: If your first set of an exercise is NOT your best set of that exercise in terms of performance (assuming we equate RIR), you are NOT warming up properly You should see a fall off in performance as sets transpire on a given exercise…this is a feature, not a bug of productive/effective resistance exercise WHEN WARMED UP PROPERLY

This is a direct hardware capture of our Grand Theft Auto 3 port running on the Sega Dreamcast... which I'm still constantly receiving questions about to this day... So what's the deal? Do we ever plan to revisit it, or have we called it a day and moved on? What about all of these gainz that I keep posting about, surely they could be applied to our GTA3 and VC ports? The truth is... No, I'm not done. I constantly think about the day when SH4ZAM is ready to be pulled back into the codebase for what will hopefully be another round of epic gainz. GTA3 and VC on DC were probably the most exhilarating, satisfying projects I've ever worked on as an engineer--academically, professionally, and personally. SH4ZAM literally started out as hand-optimized inline ASM routines I was whipping out of my ass to optimize the physics and TnL for these ports... but I decided to extract the routines and develop SH4ZAM in isolation for a couple reasons: 1) I saw a gaping hole in the DC homebrew community and KallistiOS ecosystem, which prevented indie developers from truly harnessing the power of the DC's SH4 CPU and its epic FPU, due to us having no good generic software solution to democratize the hardware... I felt like my work on GTA3 and VC could help fill that void. 2) The linear algebra math and low level SH4 ASM was starting to get complex enough that continuing to work within the main game codebase when implementing these optimizations became unrealistic. It became too easy to break the game in obscure ways that weren't immediately apparent without playing the game for hours, which was not a very ideal workflow... I needed an isolated environment where I could rigorously unit test and profile my routines. In addition to SH4ZAM, though, there's all kinds of other stuff I wanted for the game... We have yet to implement mouse + keyboard support for the PC control scheme, also enabling players enter cheat codes. We had some cool goodies planned for the VMU, and we didn't support any rumble or haptic feedback either, just to name a few. Finally, we have one more super secret weapon we've kept hidden for many months now... A certain 3D modeling wizard, who goes by Andrea Lotito, has been working on asset-side gainz, by reducing polygonal complexity of pedestrian models among others, while astonishingly still managing to get EVEN MORE DETAIL out of the models as well?!

The main issue with crypto (generally anything with extremely asymmetric payoffs, pro sports, youtubing/vlogging, venture capital, etc) is that its almost always heavily frontloaded effort. This is in stark contrast compared to what "regular" people do (I can't even say normies, that's literally a normie word now) - do work, get paid, rinse and repeat. The mind of someone trapped (vid related) in that lifestyle cannot comprehend that there's an entirely different lifestyle possible. And even if they could comprehend it, they have prior commitments - bank debt, family that needs taking care of whether very old or very young, and do not have time to get into something new. Why don't they just quit? Because they cannot service pre-existing commitments and if they were to suddenly drop all work that pays them once or twice a month they would not make it past 3 months. It's also why they fall for gurus/courses on instagram/tiktok, the death grip of a person giving a dream of escaping the cage "one last shot". Once they fail and become resigned to their fate, they resent anyone who's their mutual friend from before that managed to escape. It's the ultimate Catch22 of our time and the reconciliation of these two sides is almost near impossible. The eternal wagie takes offense to you telling him to grind hard and sleep less because he's too deep down the other side of the spectrum - do this for long enough and the feeling of having to turn up for work every day becomes almost like a parasite that you cannot get rid of. It's not a matter of showing up and doing the steps that are needed - it's a matter of mindset, and we all know how hard it can be to change our minds on things as we grow older. It doesn't matter how hard you try to get the wageworm out of your body, a part of it will always linger and stay in you, regenerating and multiplying, with each season passing, and until its reached the saturation point of "good enough" where your dreams and hopes are not crushed by other people but by yourself. I count and bless every single dollar that has ever reached my wallets and bank accounts when I see a video like this, because I know way too many people who are doomed to a lifestyle that should not be called worthy of a human.

1 song… 1 BTC When it happened earlier I didn’t quite realize right away what that really meant Despite knowing every inch of relentless work I put in for 3 years to get to this moment, it still didn’t feel real until… I sat down at my childhood piano and, fighting the tears, I played the song. My song. My diary. My story. But for the first time, it didn’t feel like I was singing the song. It felt like someone was singing it TO me. Someone who understood me and who knew to tell me I wasn’t crazy for being like this. Someone who went through the same uphill battles who knew exactly what I needed to hear to keep going. And then I realized again that I was the one who wrote those lines. That I was giving me strength all along. But that someone out there felt it too, enough to put such a value on it. And so many others feel it as well, and show me every day. The song brought me back to reality. The song told me the TRUTH. My own song transcended me for a moment, comforted me, like it knew me before I consciously know myself. And it gave me strength and awareness that there’s a chance that now others who also felt misunderstood, defeated and lonely maybe now feel hopeful. I think of all the artists (musicians in particular) out there who maybe experience this. And we forget that this is what our songs do to other people, until we’re so out of it ourselves that they do it to us. Our own songs heal US first, before we even realize. And then they heal, unite, ignite hope in others too. This is magic. Music is magic. Musi is God. This is only the beginning, but right now I hold back the tears as I sing this little song about all the n0 0rdinary kinds that made it possible. Inspired by other art, powered by a defiant community To all that thought they’d be lonely forever They’d never get a chance That they may as well die But who kept going You are not crazy. You are n0 0rdinary kind. And this song is for you.

It’s as if Australia has an alcohol problem and will not admit it. As any recovering alcoholic will tell you, the first step to getting sober is to admit you have a problem. There is no amount of rhetoric, no amount of pretending that glosses over the facts in the Australian economy. Albanese is declaring economic victory as the official inflation figure seems to be under control. If everything is better, why does it feel like we living in a scene from “Mad Max”? I stopped at a service station in Fairfield on Australia Day. The faces of the people in the store, queueing to pay too much for their much-needed tank told the story. The man behind the counter tried to feign a smile. Almost as if the whole place is hollowed-out, hope gone, each footstep impossible. Shifting a tonne from one leg to the other. Forlorn… tumbleweed as more shops close, more builders go broke. More young people cut out of the housing market, and there’s financial pain at every turn. Albanese is wallpapering over the true economic circumstance - which is like a giant hole in the wall. The wallpaper looks nice on the surface but the termites are eating everything still. He is hiring more government workers to uphold and enforce yet more stupid regulation. They don’t want to go back to the office, so they don’t have to. The NSW train drivers want more money than pilots - as nurses, police and carers on the front lines can’t afford a roof over their night shift-working heads. Albanese and Chalmers are like Maverick and Goose at the volleyball net, high fives and “ata-boys”. They think we believe them. They think we can’t see it, feel it… the controlled demolition of hope. We can’t fix this until the problem is recognised, diagnosed and cured. The termites in the wall must be removed, the structure replaced, the gyprock and painting too. It is real work, hard work and tough decisions must be made. Albanese and Labor are not up to the task, they can’t do it. I think they actually believe their ideological economic-mumbo-jumbo. They think they can tax borrow and spend their way out; they think expensive and unreliable energy is the way. They think they can bribe mega-corporations to stay. They think government jobs are real jobs. They think they can fix it by simply doing more of the same things only faster and with more energy. They can’t. They are drunk with power and holding on for dear life, as they drive this once great nation off the edge of a cliff. They must all be voted out of parliament, all of them. I just want Australia back.
