If you don't have an official source, or if your source is commercial media, please don't post about Bondi Beach. Actually, better not to post your take at all.

As always: it is significant that racist people make a point of declaring they're not racist.

The word still has meaning - it is still bad to be as hateful as these people. There are still consequences.

Whenever I do a cryptic crossword I hate the sort of person who makes cryptic crosswords, except when I complete them. Then I just hate myself.

Am I the only Australian who pictures Jason Mantzoukas every time I hear Jason Koutsoukis mentioned? Anyway, mind blown now that I should have been picturing Saul Goodman

Wet weather footy is not a bad spectacle. It's what most of us played and leads to close games instead of blowouts.
Channel 7 want a roof in Tassie because more goals mean more ad breaks.

Interesting times for the Greens, and it could get worse. But not convinced losing a couple of three-way-race seats in the lower house that they won with some luck last time while retaining all 6 seats and balance of power in the senate = dead

Peter Dutton: I don’t want to stand in front of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander flags at political press conference anymore.

Dickson voters: okay.

Chaney too. From reports I've heard her dad was a very decent man who would never have stood for the anti-Indigenous opportunism/racism of Dutton.
Sam Maiden in Insiders was right - Allegra Spender should be the Libs shadow Treasurer - heck leader.

But the Liberal Party spent a generation ignoring women and pretending climate change is a UN conspiracy.

Not sure they are ready to reverse either. - eg see Hastie
