Aussie. Mother of cats. Obsessively watching the U.S political situation because it affects the wider world. Xennial. Atheist. Childfree.
Great article from the exceptional fact checker Daniel Dale… I’m actually surprised CNN (what with their drift gently to the right) allowed repeated and insistent use of the word LIE to accurately describe Diaper Don’s allergy to anything factual. www.cnn.com/2025/12/27/p...

It was hard to pick only 25. But it was easier than it used to be.

Took a rare peek at the old place, and the very top of my feed (after toggling off the default ‘for you’ grossness) is this ad from someone I’m definitely NOT following that really implies Elon and his bot army are trying to boost extreme right wing crap here in Aus 🤮

I’m not into footy but my city did jolly well this weekend, winning a grand final in 1 type of footy & a semi (onto grand final next week) in the other type of footy. Go Brisbane!🍻

Board game day going about as well as it always does in a house with cats. #catsky

Two days in a row of an un-beeped F bomb dropped by the gorgeous @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com when he reads out the relevant passage from the Emile Bove WB report on air. Loving it so much.

At this stage, I’m thinking Wicket is not 100% cat, she is at least 8% Disney Princess.

Proud to be Australian tonight. We told the right wing to stuff it and yanked the chair out from under their ghoul of a leader in the process. More green seats would’ve been nice but this shellacking will keep me buzzing a while. #Auspol

Rewatching Chernobyl on MAX hits a lot different as you also watch the USA descend into Soviet levels of ‘don’t contradict dear leader or the party line’… just… yikes.

The internet proves there is still hope in the world, if the amount of GIFs already available of Milchick and the marching band is anything to judge by.

The handover banter between Rachel @maddow.msnbc.com and @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com today, about their modest beginnings in big-city share houses, had me giggling like a schoolgirl. I needed that chuckle, thanks team.

4 years ago I pulled an all-nighter to watch for myself that no further shitfuckery would occur in DumbDumb’s attempts to retain power. I shall not be watching the farce, the mockery of oaths set to occur over the coming hours. Heck no.

DumbDumb hosting a "rally" when there is no need for campaigning (literally ever again) is such a pitiful narcissist need that I cannot stop cringing.

I’m gonna be perma-cringing for years while I watch the USA go through the embarrassment of this having idiot on the world stage for them again.

Brisbane, December 21st - the longest day of the year. Sunrise 4:50am; sunset 6:43pm. Just casually putting this here as a case for why some cities without daylight savings time REALLY REALLY oughta consider implementing it…

It has been a few days but my Aussie ears still hurt to hear the surname of 47’s A.G nom being pronounced like ‘bon-dee’ rather than the more pleasantly beachy ‘bon-dye’
