Bleeding heart lefty, politics junkie, union strong, ally, and bad (but enthusiastic) guitarist, Gadigal country.
My very first album, and 40 years later, remains a favourite.

Such musical genius

RIP and thankyou Brian

Gun safety rules:

1) Treat all guns as loaded;

2) Always point muzzle in a safe direction;

3) Keep finger off trigger until ready to fire; and

4) BE SURE OF YOUR TARGET AND WHAT IS BEYOND IT.

This FCKER was aiming at an Aussie journo... AND FIRED!

Seems secretly seizing the power of 5 or 6 ministers, pissing off to Hawaii in the middle of a cataclysmic bushfire, taking a paedo to meet the US president, lying about Brittany Higgins, lying to Macron, smirking whenever he wasn't lying, and shitting himself at Engandine Maccas isn't disqualifying

Early post election analysis indicates Wilson just didn't have enough campaign staff dress-up as tradies

Thoughts n prayers go out to those hardest hit by tonight's election result... particularly Harry Dutton, who may never own his own 17th home

Dutton's photo ops at 27 petrol stations, and abandoning every policy he ever had (except for the one where he'd put a nuclear plant in his own electorate) is even worse than whatever this shit was... 👇

Cos those doing the arresting are the criminals

Serious question:

How many of DHS' new employees are proud boys, boogaloo, kkk, J6ers, etc?
April 28, 2025 at 8:33 PM
If DHS is the only govt dept currently looking to boost its numbers... by 20,000!!

Do we know how many are/were: Proud Boys, Boogaloo boys, KKK, J6 rioters, or other far right militia?

Cos at the moment, they sure look like viable candidates to enforce the regime's insane policies

He's broken the GOP
He's broken laws
He's broken the constitution
He's broken the economy
He's broken the judiciary
He's broken alliances

Don't let him break you!

If you ever wondered what you would've done in Nazi Germany, wonder no more...

cos you're doing it right now

Are only half of them barracking for Steve McQueen to make it over the fence?

If politics is a game of compromise, the shift to the centre by the ALP and the shift to the right by the LNP means their compromises are NOT something i am comfortable with... #auspol
