I have been watching The Genius Game on SBS Viceland & on demand. Its fabulous, created & hosted my David Tennant, although I’m sure he had help.
I’m thoroughly enjoying it. I hope there’ll be more when this one finishes. #thegeniusgame

Personally I'm amazed people stayed on X after the Nazi salute, but whatever. The best time to leave Twitter was years ago, the second-best time is now.

Hmm surely it works both ways - if media stopped reporting on X posts, politicians wouldn't have any reason to remain there.

Time to get off X, prime minister. It’s repulsive
Now would be a great time for the federal government and the opposition to review their use of the platform they condemn.

Good morning tooters. It was a pleasant 16c when I got up this morning & heading up to a bit too warm 35c 😏. It’s still quite smoky out but is a lot better than yesterday. I didn’t sleep the best, took me a long time to settle & I was tossing & turning which made me hot. I had to get up & turn […]

This repulses me. I would think that the #AFP or some other investigative unit, should obtain these records of Australians, & immediately begin prosecution!
Pretty sure if most other people or companies created such a thing, the app would be not only dropped by Apple/Google stores, govts and businesses, but they would also charged by police.
Some Grok users, mostly men, began to demand to see bruising on the bodies of the women, and for blood to be added to the images. Requests to show women tied up and gagged were instantly granted.

Best of 2025 - The Chris Hedges Report: We are all antifa now
The designation of the amorphous group antifa as a terrorist organisation allows the state to brand all dissidents as supporters of antifa and prosecute them as terrorists.
