Earth calling!

Written by  The Hound

Your canine crusader understands the vast majority of those in the acting profession (basically out-of-work waiters and waitresses) are show ponies who tend to err on the side of trendy, lefty, woke politics.

However, even your canine crusader was taken aback by the weird acceptance speech at this year’s Oscars Awards by the best actor winner Joaquin Phoenix.

A weirdo at the best of times, Phoenix’s rant included criticism of the dairy industry and claims people were “disconnected from the natural world”.

However, your old mate reckons after listening to Phoenix’s diatribe – which could have been written by another weirdo, Hans Kreik from SAFE – the only one “disconnected for the world” is this self-important tosser.
