Or why bother?
Burning that shit wouldn't make people forget the Nazis existed.

Christchurch Sacks The Wizard
Quote:The Christchurch City Council will stop paying The Wizard $16,000 a year after more than two decades on the public payroll to “provide acts of wizardry” for the city.
The Wizard of New Zealand, also known as Ian Brackenbury Channell, said the council had decided to stop paying him because he did not fit with the modern image of the city. Over his 23 years on the payroll, the council has paid him a total of $368,000.
“They are a bunch of bureaucrats who have no imagination,’’ he said.
This is seriously fucked up. How, in these times of pandemics and looming global recession, is a modern city like Christchurch supposed to get by without a wizard on the payroll?

Did that stem from the filming of Lord of the Rings movies or something? What a great gig!
Why is it so?

Nah, he’s been at this for quite a while before the LOTR films. Channell’s an interesting cat:

Allen West, Texas gubernatorial candidate and Trump sycophant, did not get vaccinated, opting instead for ivermectin. He has contracted COVID and is now hospitalized with low oxygen saturation and COVID-related pneumonia. His wife, who did get vaccinated, has only contracted COVID, but has not been hospitalized, nor is she expected to be.

This is a really sad story, but I can kinda relate to what the man did.
Man Storms Animal Shelter To Recover Pet Cat
Quote:A cat burglar dressed in tactical gear and brandishing a fake assault rifle stormed a Melbourne animal shelter and tied up a worker in a bid to get his feline friend back.
Tony Wittman pleaded guilty to false imprisonment, aggravated burglary, criminal damage, perjury, common law assault and carry an imitation weapon in the Melbourne Magistrates Court on Monday.

I'd probably do the same thing to rescue my cat.
