I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Sort of wish I could rewatch the 2016 presidential debates and yell out, YOU TWO HAVE MORE IN COMMON THAN YOU KNOW!!!

Nothing makes me feel more gaslit than the published reviews penned by almost everyone working as television critic in Australia.

When I saw Erin Patterson was going to appeal I fell to my knees & sobbed, conscious of what this would mean for the mushroom content machine.

For the love of god spare us more takes! Truman Capote himself could come back from the dead & I’d punch him in the throat if he looked twice at the case

All this Liberal Party leadership speculation is getting a bit much, I fear the Opposition Leader will be forced to chuck an extra 'S' in to protect herself during the so-called killing season... good luck tryna knock of the all powerful Susssan Ley, lads!

Extraordinary violence unfolding in Darfur
What is unfolding in Sudan, where the armed group RSF has taken control of the key city of El Fasher, is "the sum of all our fears," says human rights investigator Nathaniel Raymond. "RSF is killing at a scale and a velocity that I haven’t seen since Rwanda."

A really nice cab driver picked me up from the airport for a relatively short drive to Pitt St. I was late to an appointment, so he hurried me out the cab and grabbed my bags for me and offered the EFTPOS machine to tap and go… and I stupidly didn’t check.

Airport taxis are so bad I now have a pathological fear of getting one
On one occasion, I felt so intimidated by a driver I was fearful the whole way home. What had I done? I’d questioned the route he was taking.

It wasn’t long into my conversation with this outback nurse for me to realise - there’s something really special happening here.

NEW: No, Charlie Kirk was not practicing politics the right way. That's what Ezra Klein said. We can condemn this heinous assassination but also recognize that with his 2020 election denialism and extremist rhetoric, Kirk built his movement with falsehoods and in a wrong and divisive manner.

His assassination deserves full condemnation; his full impact should not be sidestepped.
