It’s a classic Crikey Friday Fight! Today Ben Eltham and Bernard Keane go head-to-head on the proposed local content quotas for streaming services.
@beneltham.bsky.social argues it’s just what industry, and audiences, need. But Keane calls it “paternalistic protectionism”.

Do we need local content quotas? Yes, Australian-made content is already too hard to find

If you ever wonder why your artist friend is so pissed off whenever they see AI slop used instead of real, human-created art, it's exactly what you think:
How is AI *really* impacting jobs?
Henley Chiu, the CTO of Revealera, a jobs data analysis firm, analyzed 180 million jobs listings in 2024 and 2025, in an effort to find out. Chiu found an:
-8% drop in all jobs postings
-~30% drop in art, photography, writing jobs
-22% drop in journalism jobs

What’s really going on with AI and jobs?
Record-breaking layoff reports, Amazon's mass firings, and a slump in entry level employment. Is AI behind it all?

There are infections of blood. There are infections of the soul. There are I believe, infections of the place. For the land itself may be wounded by our traumas. Where its psychic skin cracks, the spoilings of rot and wickedness can set in. We call such infections hauntings. – Rev. A. Morley

Totally fucked up
Hard to understand a govt that blocks teenagers from social media but has *no* issue with them accessing online gambling platforms at all, or with them being bombarded with ads for online gambling.
Australia’s teen social media ban has a gaming-sized loophole
The list of banned platforms requires mental gymnastics that the government has struggled to explain, and ignores where kids actually spend their time.

The % of sympathy we have for bastards overseas who have Australian wildlife as 'pets' is in negative figures. Rosetti, even if already dead, can get in the bin along with the idiot influencer with a sick, manic emu in bloody Florida & people with lonely sugar gliders hurtling off their fridges.
It’s 6 November, and you know what that means, don’t you? YES, THAT’S RIGHT. It’s the 156th anniversary of the death of Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s pet wombat

I don't think I've come across a poem that taps into my ethos when it comes to navigating queer community within the context of a hostile world as much as "We Have Enough Dead Friends" by Lena Oleanderson.
I strive to make my home a sanctuary where other faggots feel safe and cared for.

I met a baby at greenwich baths yesterday and he didn't know any numbers except for 8 and 9. When his nanny was counting with him he just kept going "eight nine?". So if anybody is sick of kids saying 67 you can tell them to get with the times. 89 is the new shit. Straight from the source. (a baby)
