I was born in 1963 to an alcoholic mother who became sectioned under the mental health act when I was 3. I was born with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (EDS) which is a collagen disorder thought associated with high functioning autism. Collagen plays a part in immune regulation and brain connectivity. I was immune deficient since 6 months old and had IgE allergies to wheat and legumes which would have been present since infancy. Then a lot happened when I was two and a half.

Those who have been close friends with me will know I have an extremely poor sense of my value to any other human being. I do get my value in relation to Chris but I am just not oriented to think about or hold onto the information about my worth or value to others. Read the rest of this entry »

In 1973, Father Gerard Ridsdale and Father George Pell lived together in the parish house of St Alipius in Ballarat East. Father Gerard Ridsdale became chaplain at the St Alipius Boy’s School in the early 1970s where his career as Victoria’s most rampant Catholic pedophile priest began. By 2013, Ridsdale was charged with over 200 counts of child sexual abuse and pleaded guilty to 167 of these counts. Cardinal George Pell was implicated in the investigation into how Ridsdale was a known abuser since the early 1970s but escaped conviction until 1993. Read the rest of this entry »

We all have around 4 main personality traits out of the 16 listed by Dave Kelly. It is these main defining 4 personality traits that shape our most dominant motivation patterns. And no matter how we try to hide or obscure these, no matter what self-serving bias drives us to identify otherwise, it is these main 4 personality traits that will ultimately ‘leak’ through. Even if we erase them from the lines, they will continue to have a presence ‘between the lines’. Among these 16 personality traits is a personality trait called the Inventive trait. Now you may think being ‘inventive’ is a damned good thing. But the term here is misleading. The Inventive personality trait is that of the bluffer, nothing is ever their own fault and the extreme of it is Compensatory Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Read the rest of this entry »

Recently refugees fleeing to Australia showed their badly burned hands and claimed Australian Naval officers had systematically inflicted burns on them and kicked 
them whilst on the boat they were on as they returned them to Indonesia under Tony Abbott’s “Operation Sovereign Borders”. Read the rest of this entry »

We all get earworms. I do too. But this is rather different to having the equivalent of a radio program in your head. I feel I’ve had my own invisible iPod all my life because I have always had music starting up in my head, including to the degree it got in the way of learning or processing external sounds… or perhaps it filled that gap because I couldn’t.
