Three reasons why Brisbane is the Manchester of Australia.
1. The Go-Betweens.
2. The Saints.
3. Down in those southern burbs, they also have a shopping centre called the Arndale.

Facts, issues, law, conclusion. It's a straightforward process, ehoa. It's not a ground offensive, not a war, not a conflict - it is a genocide carried out with the intent of possessing and occupying Palestinian lands & waters. Report the facts. Be journalists not genocide collaborators.

Hastie’s face whilst watching Dutts panic attack his way through pressers is also top value.

Dutton has always been a dud orator. He doesn’t seem to be coping well with the pressure of candidacy. He just looks like he’s shitting himself. Every facial muscle is having a breakdance battle against every other facial muscle. He’s tensing visibly at the sound of certain journo voices.

If the centrepiece of ABC’s election coverage is the ex-Murdoch/Costello smorgasboard of dribblers then I suggest we all get our election news from that child, Leo, who runs his own news channel between double maths and recess.

The Signal leak (and its contents) is basically what happens when conservative white male student politicians in any Anglosphere country become vested with the power to rain death from above.

NRL head office: We take the wellbeing of our players very seriously and are committed to improving the safety of the game
NRL marketing to the US: This game is basically a demolition derby and at least one player breaks a leg or gets their head knocked off in every game.

Marco Rubio is like having Tom Wambsgabs as Secretary of State, a man whose ambition is to be an empty suit, on board to take any stance, say anything, whatever the boss wants, and sponge up some of the pain that comes back, all for the trappings, the title, the plane rides, the suits, to be there.

It’s the same old bullshit flung at any Australian Māori or PI (roughly 52% of graded Rugby League players) when they stick their hands up for culture and for mana motuhake at the start of the season. Cue the big sook because they didn’t play for the colony at end of last season

(1/6) There are four key convict chains of causation that resulted in the colonisation, first of Gadigal and Darug lands and then the rest of the Australian mainland.

Tonight in DC, Trump invited Elon Musk on stage during his speech, but he did NOT invite JD Vance.
As we’ve been saying, it’s President-elect Musk and Vice President-elect Trump.

The insanity of being a fire ecologist in the epicenter of a major fire event, bags packed and ready to evacuate, watching active fire from my window, while taking media requests and explaining to the public, for the 100,000th time how climate change is largely responsible for this

They are going full oligarchy to the sound of silent consent. When fascism takes over, it is not with a bang but a gradual normalization of corruption, nepotism, and organized crime.
They'll slow boil democracy until nothing is left. The time to act is now, the time to protest is overdue.
