As the community begins to grapple with the horror and tragedy of the Bondi shootings on Sunday, children will likely have questions. Parents may also be wondering how to talk to their little kids and teenagers about what happened.

Ah yes, that's where a recently unemployed 24-year-old bricklayer, who spent years hanging around Australia's pro-IS network, and his 50-year-old migrant father were radicalised: university anti-genocide protests 🙄

Be fucking serious for a moment.

People are increasingly disenfranchised with the major political parties. They don’t want a political class – people who are career politicians. They want real people with real, life experience.

You've heard that there really are only #TwoGenders, right? Well, it's true.

I have shared this story, this thread, before - but I think given the state of the world, it's worth telling once again. Maybe it can help, especially if like me, you make art, and you wonder what the use of all of it is right now.

For those wondering how long it takes a nation to forget why it fought a war in which around 410,000 of its people died - the answer is just a bit under 80 years.
“I think certainly the fact that some people like Donald Trump and Elon Musk could come to represent every man against the elites feels very reminiscent to historically fascist and fascistic efforts to whip up a kind of populist sentiment "

The Perfumed Warlord always was, and still is, a dangerous, US arse-licking, liability for Australia.

One wall in his Parl House office is entirely devoted to the USA, he even has a US flag there too.

His dickheaded devotion to the USA is both deluded and dangerous.

Trump’s 25% steel & aluminum tariffs will hit Aussie exports, raising costs & reducing U.S. demand.

But don’t worry Defence Minister Marles (aka ‘Idiot Dick’) will probably hand over the rest of WA too.

He’s already given him everything else bar the kitchen sink.
