Incisive journalists like Brian Glenn in his lovely suit are the only thing saving the planet from descending into savagery.
GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.
ZELENSKYY: I will wear a costume after this war will finish. Maybe something like yours. Maybe something better.

That’s because msm & abc showcase only “dutton says” & spend the rest of their time demonising anything the ALP achieves.

So I came 2/33 in my age group in a swimming race in Busselton and I’m stoked. It was friendly and the swim was scenic, was a crowd of 15,000 people, 5000 swimmers. I celebrated with coffee and a brownie. Very pleasing.

Under Dutton’s leadership the coalition parties have gone from supporting reconciliation to not wanting to be in the same room as the indigenous flag.
Dutton wants a culture war.
Refute his position thoughtfully, freaking out is what he wants.

'Punishment Island': That's how one worker described what would happen at Nine when workers spoke up about harassment
Bosses in Nine's broadcast division would belittle, intimidate, gaslight and sexually harass employees, and when complaints were made against management, HR would cover it up.
