Never have I been happier to live in a country that has ok health care, fuck-all guns, a pretty good standard of education, the best coffee, and a reasonable level of tolerance for all as long as you’re not a shit cunt. Australia isn’t perfect but at least we’re not the US
It’s fucking snowing somewhere in Tasmania today. SNOWING!!!

You may think you hate New England Patriots owner Bob Kraft enough what with all the Epstein stuff and the flying detainees to Gitmo on the Patriots plane but you don't hate him nearly enough. Said he told Hernandez if he murdered someone he probably had a good reason. Seahawks by a million please

Like I almost feel gaslit by some of you who seem to want to convince me that I did not grow up in a culture that openly celebrated teenage girls as the peak of female sexual attractiveness and talked about them as the forbidden fruit that all men secretly list after.

The reason it is so weird to me when people call Epstein et al “pedophiles” is that it positions what they were doing as some kind of taboo, unspeakable aberration and not the *exact* sort of thing that society has openly promised men they deserve once they get rich and powerful enough.

Any other Australian media watchers finding it a little strange that the coverage of the latest Epstein files “drop” seems focussed almost entirely on the former Prince Andrew and Bill Gates, but with little mention of Donald Trump or Elon Musk? 🤔

After viewing some of the Epstein files I absolutely believe in demons. They're called billionaires. Oh I forgot to mention Bill Gates contracting an STD and asking Jeffery how to sneak antibiotics into Melinda's food. Anyway WE RIDE AT DAWN! 🧙🏼♀️🏴☠️🏳️🌈✊🏽

I spend a lot of time trying to help people understand that not all protests are the same, but one of the things that make this hard is that sometimes you show up for a "liberal vibes with kids" protest and you get an "everyone gets teargassed, including the kids" protest.
Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks.
They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

Have any AUS politicians expressed concern re the attempted bombing of the #InvasionDay rally in Boorloo (Perth) on 26Jan?! Condemned the act? Declared love or solidarity with Indigenous people? Imagine the response if a synagogue was attacked. Or the perpetrator was brown or Muslim. #auspol #racism
