#Irony: he pretends to be stupid even though he is.
Stoked, knackered, primo, gutted.

Thought these quintessential antipodean slang. They are not.

‘Chunder’ is.

Musicians: Instead of ‘unplugged’, go with ‘unbosomed’.

A young person plays music in the car, and one song features a man with expertise in one thing only: His job is to support the lead by soulfully interjecting “Killer Pussy Bang Bang” whenever the spirit takes him.

A #CurbYourEnthusiasm situation: After 6 months of dating, my friend’s new boyfriend says he’s off to Sydney for the weekend and, surprise, will visit a sex worker—because that’s what his dad did, and his granddad before him. “That’s what the Thwaites do when we go to Sydney.” Her move.

Fascinating graph shows the estimated total mass of all the mammals living on Earth.

In 1850, it was evenly divided between wildlife and humans + domesticated animals. Today, humans and their livestock account for about 95% of the total. 🧪

Here's a comparison between the sky that you can see with your human eyes & the sky seen through the radio eyes of the Murchison Widefield Array in Western Australia. 🧪🔭

James Watson the perverted racist is dead?! Well that means it's time to celebrate the true hero of DNA discovery: Rosalind Franklin

What Rosalind Franklin truly contributed to the discovery of DNA’s structure
Franklin was no victim in how the DNA double helix was solved. An overlooked letter and an unpublished news article, both written in 1953, reveal that she was an equal player.

Maths...

If you make $100,000 a year (not bad), it will take you 10 MILLION years to earn a trillion dollars.

If you make a million dollars a year (wow!), it'll still take you a million years to earn a trillion dollars.

Tax the rich.

‘In Japan, ghosts tend to haunt people rather than places. Indigenous Australian spirits favour natural rather than human structures and Mexican ghosts are usually “free-floating entities”.’

Humorous lyrics from Hendrix, and a lotta laid back cool like the D’Angelo track. They out-lean the current leanheads.

Isn’t really saying “I’ve had enough of this teaching gig and it’s time to move on”?
Is it an inappropriate micro-aggression to apply emollient to your bottom while taking a class?

Mr Walters maintains that it’s clearly a health issue, but Mrs Sayers says she’s going to escalate.

Is the argument against recreational medicine 😉 (‘drugs’ 😡) similar to the argument that women should wear body-concealing clothing because some men can’t control themselves.

It’s “let’s control the object of their uncontrolled drives” rather than “let’s educate those drives”.

I love Nina! Have you watched her YouTube therapy sessions with Monkey?
Just saw a special Q&A screening of 'Sunlight' and thought it was absolutely brilliant. Nina Conti might be a mad genius.

Does this show that adjectives don’t carry tense? Is there a language in which they do? Probably heaps. #linguistics #grammar
Yeeet, the verb and adjective clash dramatically:

I fit; I fat; I fut.

I was fit; I am fat; and soon I will be fut!
Fit, fat, fut.
