New rules: Trump can't mention Greenland again till he can correctly pronounce naalakkersuisut. No more of the 'which drawing is an elephant ?' shit.

Scotty Boland, fucking legend. 5fer and 100 balls of solid defence. If he was from NSW would have played more tests. #auscricket

Such a disappointment in so many ways.

Don't vote for people who are trying to prevent you from voting.

My dear old grandma,shearers' cook, had a saying that's apposite: Time to pull out digger, the dogs are pissing on your swag.

"Fell short of standards" is a heck of an euphemism for death by gross negligence.

Ivanka Trump dressed as a Balkan embassy bay window pelmet monorail through a bird sanctuary with a valance and a substandard-housing juliet-balcony collar.

Apart from everything else, this is plain embarrassing. Dinosaurs, tiny brain, lived on earth for around 170 million years. Going strong till they lucked out with a flying rock. Not their fault! Homo Sapiens, stable genius and all, gonna fuck it up in less than ONE mill.

As I’m arranging interviews for the high-level UNGA week, this made my day.. 😆

How can you possibly write that? We have the living example of his miraculous ear to behold. Surely if an ear shot through with a high powered rifle can be healed then the miracle of the $5000 checks will happen. Have faith.

I haven’t been indicted yet.

Good to see Marnus maintaining form. 4 from 9 balls totally justifying selectors lack of imagination.

Today's 'no shit, Sherlock' newsflash.

Clacton's beach is a no-swim zone due to sewage, but Nigel Farage's career is floating on a £5m mystery. As a bin, I know how to handle rubbish. Let's take out the trash on August 13th! #CountBinface #Clacton" Bong.

Posting this article so you too can have the joy of reading the line: "Sam Newman, whose thoughts on ruckwork carry more weight than all his other views combined". #aussierules www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/a...

I think I'm going to cook American tonight. Anyone know where I can get some laxative lettuce, salmonella eggs and botulism beans de café?

I've read a lot of comments / anecdotes about Sam Neill. And about Lindsey Graham. There's a lesson there for how you should live your life.

We're there.

Paying a racist South African to represent the apartheid genocidal regime of Israel is a stain that Labor will never recover from #auspol

Where's the grey Wiggle when you need him?

Mick Ryan, a very knowledgeable military and war analyst/commentator has addressed one of my favourite bits of Aussie history. The Great Emu War. Spoiler: the emus won and they didn't have the machine guns. mickryan.substack.com/p/the-emu-wa...

Not sure if an Aussie actually said this, but it is 100% true. If the U.S. is circling the drain it's because Republicans have led us here, and yam tits is billing us for the headstone. (apologies for mixed metaphors)

Israeli Jesus music no less.

On no. They arrested the algae.

Hey. I just realised what the reflecting pool reminds me of. Newsboys' Club circa 1958, swimming pool below Herald Sun building. The scum was probably mostly due to me and my fellow paper selling street urchins, but someone was definitely skimming the chlorine budget.

Iranian leadership meeting with Pakistani leadership in Islamabad. The video, in English, was posted by the Pakistani government 2 hours ago. Pay attention to the language, and the message. “Brotherhood has no questions to answer”

Hey. Where do I get paid to be a pro algae protestor? George Spirogyra???

When a news article leads with the words "Trump says ", I stop reading. There's just no point.

Rumours that the govt are about to to target family discretionary trusts in the Budget is a very good thing. My column www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

If the govt targets discretionary family trusts there will be a lot of guff about how they will hit middle Australians just trying to get by. Don't believe it www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

Existing gas contracts won't be taxed. Existing property investors not taxed. I was an existing consumer pre GST. Where do I apply for 26 years refund? #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

ConocoPhillips is up before the gas tax committee right now. It is trying to tell us the ATO company tax data is misleading. I can't think why they might want us to believe that. live.thepoint.com.au

Boy I love being a sailor on the USS Tripoli. It's dinner time now, I hope the chef is serving carrots and flipper again
