(Re)introduction: my name is Erin, I love metal/ emo/ punk music, horror movies, and science (not necessarily in that order). I hate fascists, transphobes, and racists (but I repeat myself!) Doing my best to be a good human and raise a good human. I’m probably less funny than I think I am.

The critical defining feature of violence in Australian society is that it is, almost entirely, male. Pointing fingers in every direction (media, social media, gaming, gambling, porn, politics, whatever) will achieve nothing if it isn't also accepted that the problem is fundamentally a male one.

Bavuma and Jansen at the crease together is peak physical comedy 😂 Bavuma literally comes up to the logo on Jansen’s chest! #cricket #SAvAUS

"Happy" #AntiPovertyWeek for 2026 There'll be events, some run for and buy poor people, some just to talk about us. I'll share them and the articles but let's do something for us: #MutualAidThread! Drop your wishlist and paylinks ⤵️ If you have money or reach, do your thing #MutualAidAustralia

Every single person who spruiks AI and the glory of data centres is either a sociopath or the most gullible POS.

All prisoners should have the right to vote while in prison

Everyone should be fighting for Universal Healthcare and disability rights. Health is fragile. You can become disabled or chronically ill in an instant. It’s not a moral failing. It can wipe out your savings and leave you destitute. Healthcare is a basic human right.

Very sad to hear that Victor Miller passed away. He forever changed the landscape of American horror over 45 years ago & us slasher fiends owe him so much.

seen alot of conspiracy theories about why it took so long and why they were allowed to leave the state, but i would like to remind everyone just how incompetent the cops are when it comes to sexual violence allegations

Reading newspaper articles past all the pop ups and ads is like trying to read a book propped up in a field through a fence while passing in a moving train.

My column this week is about how fat people can’t win and I’m fucking sick of it www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

At this point the only vegetable that hasn't been recalled is Mitch McConnell.

We continue the decades long loop of having the media and politicians acknowledge the widespread issue before falling short of fucking doing anything about it. chaser.com.au/general-news...

Ways to know you’re one of the *really* dodgy guys.

If people would use alt text, this wouldn't be an issue. Alt text is parsed by the mute words filter so please use it.

Sam Neill represented such a solid warm version of masculinity in so many of the roles he played.

I'm not even rooting against Argentina at this point I am rooting against FIFA

Again, like a TREE

Well done Egypt. But not quite sure why Soutar took the first shot, and a literal teenager taking another?! #AUSvEGY

I reckon one of the biggest reasons Aus media loves Pauline Hanson so much is because she's perfected what they've always aspired to: being as racist as possible while maintaining a thin shred of concern-trolling plausible deniability by pretending you're just concerned about some other issue

"if we offered free land near prairie,Townsville, to Israelis & transport for their skilled ppl, families & equipment & encouraged them to build advanced war drones & advances in defence… & manufacture them here to sell to our country to help make our ppl & infrastructure safe” Gina Rinehart

It hasn’t kept me from seeing a damn thing. Instead, seeing people come together in joy and enthusiasm has reminded me exactly what I’m fighting for. Sorry if you can’t walk and chew gum tho.

Australia go coast-to-coast for the opening goal scored by Nestory Irankunda

he may be the first, but the people can also make sure he's the last as well
