Occupy Friday #16
Video shot by Chloe of in-hindsight-kind-of-hilarious Kenji arrest drama at Fed Square in the evening, where a small group had gone to disrupt a Kony 2012 rally (I unfortunately missed this, having taken off earlier for Studdsy’s 30th birthday party):

Occupy Chez Hagakure
Thursday 15th – Saturday 17th March.
A somewhat brutal Thursday at Chez Hag was unexpectedly redeemed by the sudden invasion at 7:15pm of a swarm of beloved Occutards who stayed for two nights wreaking havoc in preparation for Occupy Monsanto day on Saturday.
No blog post could possibly do justice to this shit. Neither can screencapped Facebook posts, but I’ll link some anyway.
Video shot around midnight on the Thursday:
Followup video shot around 2:15am:

TPPA Ch 7 News Hijack @ Fed Square
This all started when I received a call from Moo first thing in the morning advising that Channel 7 would be doing their evening news broadcast live from Federation Square, and suggesting that we quietly herd the cats for some snap TPPA-awareness-raising action.
Although in the end I personally missed the whole actual thing. Who knew it would turn out to be this epic? Wrong day to be taking a break. Oh well.
Amazing raw footage of Indi’s (1 gig). KenjiVision:

Occupy Friday #3
This chalkage by Dan Hayato-Thomas was surprisingly controversial:
Cardboard freegan chocolate stand threat systematically neutralised with devastating efficiency by Victoria’s finest:

Eviction Of Occupy Melbourne From City Square
Friday, 21st October.
What. The. Actual. Fuck.
Random video I shot from across the road:
Fairly eye-popping report from that well-known “bastion of socialist activism” (lol, Geoff Lemon) The Herald Scum:
Video coverage by Anthony Snowden:
In summation: Robert Doyle is a fucking cunt.
Also: this.
Sitting Amongst The Wreckage
Watching Press Gang with Toots.
Teh life, it is good.
The housewarming afterparty was, as intended, a quiet affair. But it still went OFF. I blame this guy.
I have nothing else to declare except my ongoing, undying love for M2M. And that I have a new favourite word.
This is the first M2M video I ever saw, in 2002:
The final minute emerged randomly from under the end of something else I’d taped on purpose. I taped Video Hits all the way through for a month of Saturday mornings afterwards to catch it again. We had to do things like that in the dark days before YouTube and BitTorrent were invented.
Update – This footage is not particularly interesting content-wise, but I find Marit weirdly mesmerising in it:
I also like the bit where Marion asks Andrew G if he ate the worm.

I Want To Marry M2M
Housewarming went OFF, btw. But that’s hardly news.
UPDATE: What is news is that it went OFF so much it’s been determined we need another, smaller one this Saturday to contain the fallout. There will be cigars, apparently. (And a Shisha! N – of K & N fame – totally gave me a Shisha for no particular reason. LFN!)
