Newspoll shows Dutton’s racist horse shit is failing.

Tory governments have failed.

Is it possible the Australian electorate is different to how the Australian media depicts it?

Perhaps we should focus on our unity, rather than our division?

Kindness and decency, Australia.

Ali France is one of the few quality ALP candidates worth supporting. Probably too late for her to run as an independent.

I guess we just save it up and laugh heartily when the inevitable #LibSpill happens and we can enjoy Dutton’s political demise.

#ThugSpill

When Morrison was leader of the coalition doing political commentary could at least be funny. He was diabolical, but a buffoon, there were laughs to be had.

With Dutton I find little to laugh about. Straight up fascist is in no way funny.

Apart from the faux glasses. They’re hilarious.

Bastion of masculinity.

Don’t mess with nuns.

Benedictine College nuns denounce Harrison Butker's speech at their school

"Instead of promoting unity in our church, our nation, and the world, his comments seem to have fostered division," the sisters wrote of the NFL kicker's controversial commencement address.

Sadly we all know what it means when one cyclist is so much stronger than all the others day after day.

I thank you.

I thought it was a podcast about the current Trump trial, but when I looked closer I saw it was titled The Mushroom Cook.

Sam Mitchell.

Time?

And you’d still be craving nicotine if you had a fancy induction stovetop.

I just checked and Kasey Chambers’ version of Eminem’s Lose Yourself still makes me cry.

This may be one of the few times Morrison has told the truth. In his tiny mind he may well have done all he could imagine.

Reuters pays attention to these things, I guess this is why Musk slags off Reuters on behalf of his Saudi owners.

“You know, four wheels, and stuff.”

No, just men, everywhere, all the time, talking about cars.

The other day I walked past two guys discussing the factory supplied wheel rims on a new Mercedes.

Even when there’s nothing to say about cars men talk about cars.

Being a 56 year old male in Australia means having sat through around 52 years of other males talking about cars.

With an AC/DC soundtrack.

I can’t comprehend being so obsessed with a car that the car has to come on holidays too.

A happy story.

Ian Roberts has competed in some of the most high-profile races in the world. But his biggest competition to date was a determined 5th grader in jean shorts and Nike tennis shoes.

The Guardian is being harassed by Musk.

Let’s give The Guardian a home here on Bluesky, share it around.

We need to make our own scene here.

It seems everyone has forgotten Zuckerberg’s role in the Trump election in 2016.

My brother died a while back. A small box of random stuff he left behind ended up at my place, including a large bag of cheap razors.

I thought it was important to use them, not sure why, years later I’ve finally disposed of the last one and can cease tearing up my face now.

Didn’t that guy get high on the smell of his own farts?

Hopefully the few moving here will eventually attract others.

For me it was an ethical choice, rather than leaving because it wasn’t a pleasant personal experience. I can’t give Musk my support by using his site.

One amusing thing about JK Rowling is she now aligns herself with the religious extremists who thought Harry Potter was satanic.

I left 18 months ago, I’ve had to check a couple of DMs there in that time, nearly all the people I knew are still there.

Will random gifs work here now?

Unfortunately it’s just not happening. All the big accounts that would draw people to other sites are too comfortable on Twitter, they seem to be staying there.

Sadly nearly everyone is still there. Very few have left the site, even those who shouted the loudest about boycotting Murdoch are still supporting a Musk product.

As atheists become the majority religious wars will be viewed as barbarity.

Because religious wars are barbarity.

The Vatican has issued new rules on what can be claimed to be supernatural.

It seems people have been claiming any old shit as signs of god.

Who’d have thought?

Musk calling for Dr Fauci to be prosecuted for . . . whatever . . . is why everyone should leave Twitter.

Decent people shouldn’t be associating with such dangerous idiocy.

The time was the day Musk walked in with that sink.

Taking money off stupid people is easy.

He’s a terrible liar.

A firm moral stance based on the fear of losing domestic votes at the federal election next year.

Let’s give them minority government just the same.

Why is this not a story in our media? How is it in any way acceptable?

This?

Oh, this is just the taxpayer funded Australian ambassador hosting a book launch for a disgraced former prime minister at our taxpayer funded embassy in DC, in the company of the worst liars of Trump’s entourage.

That’s all.

It’s a club. A rich, egomaniac club. And we pay the dues.

Much more. Probably a curfew and limits on contacts, no booze or licensed premises, regular reporting, it’s really not so hard if you have the cash to have luxuries delivered and a nearby golf course.

I’m sure his victims would agree. But rich men rarely do time.

I’m not about to feel sorry for this prick. If he can’t do two years of luxury limitation he’s even more of a useless prick than he’s proved himself to be so far.

Being in actual prison?

Now imagine you have rich maaates to ensure you don’t miss out on any luxuries and a lawyer to find you every legal loophole?

In the interests of journalistic balance Forbes should also find the one hundred poorest people in the world and publish their names in a list, with a short biography for each.
