Share a cartoon from the past that kids today have probably never heard of
From the Hanna-Barbera cartoon show, the image is of a white young woman with long blonde haor, wearing clothing of brown fabric or animal pelt and a red necklace. She's standing in front of vegetation. She has a small grey mammal, maybe a lemur, on her shoulder. She is the character Jana Of The Jungle, from the show that had a single season of 13 episodes in 1978.

Next up, indies. Poked a few games, this is the first to really tickle my gaming juices. If you liked Monument Valley you'll probably like this.

Starting with D&D raising charity money by spicing the players with hot sauce...

Couple of grand raised so far...
PAX panel raising money for Black Dog by making the players eat hot sauces... on stage are 6 seated players - an asian man, a woman dressed as a green goblin, 2 black women, a white man with long hair and a white woman in a grey wig. The DM is standing, and is a white man with a hot pink jacket. There are many bottles of hot sauce on the tables

Proper Melbourne weather silliness.
A view of IKON Park, from the east stand looking towards the main training facility. A game of AFLW is being played between Carlton and Fremantle. It is raining and the floodlights are on.

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden or Alice In Chains.
The cover art of the 1990 album Goodbye Jumbo by World Party. It depicts the head and upper body of a man (presumably the frontman Karl Wallinger) wearing a grey top and a gas mask. Attached to the mask are elephant ears, with tassles hanging from the tips. The hose of the gas mask hangs down like an elephant trunk. The background is a blue sky. The name of the album is spelled in Scrabble tiles along the top. Around the border is a fringe of what appear to be magazine cuttings or many small images, of elephants, buildings, World landmarks, weapons and vehicles.

Wondered what RB was thinking given the fascists were out. If he really thinks that his rhetoric isn't fascist and also thinks he'll be able to act white enough to avoid the fate of all brown people if his mates get their way, especially after he leaves the Senate, he's even thicker than I thought.
Screenshot of Senator Babet's twitter page, with tweets from Sunday 31/08/2025. These are from after rallies organised that day by the National Socialist Network, which all had known neo-nazi speakers. The captured tweets read: - Cue the "Babet is a Nazi" posts. Hilarious, really. I'm a known immigrant from East Africa but sure keep the lazy slurs coming. The truth? I'm an Australia First patriot and a Christian Nationalist. - Stop mass immigration. NOW! - Multiculturalism isn't strength, it's cancer. More here: [links to a video, thumbnail is Babet's headphones and the text "Australia is a Christian Nation"

Not bad seats...

Oh, he did indeed.
Donald Sutherland in a scene from "Invasion of the Bodysnatchers" (1978). He is a middle-aged white man with short curly red hair and moustache, wearing a trench coat, below which can be seen part of a dark suit, white shirt and red tie. Behind, the trees are without leaves, and the lower floors of two tall buildings are in the background. He is pointing directly at the camera, head slightly back, eyes wide open and his mouth is open too as if he is screaming.

It's still Non-Binary People's Day in parts of the world... (also Bastille Day...)

Among the many flags we have for hanging at games, we do have an NB flag and we'll make sure to display it next season.

We see you!
A Non-Binary flag laid out. It's new so there are still crease lines. It's 4 stripes: yellow, white, purple, black.

One day, you shall sample this excellent breakfast* scroll.

*Or lunch, or late night. They're great.
Vegemite scroll in a white wrapper. Below the logo in black text is "BAKERY TREATS made with CHEESE & VEGEMITE at Coles." It looks delicious. I shall eat it now.

What athlete's expression will stay with you the rest of your life?
From the moments after the Matildas won the longest ever World Cup penalty shoot-out against France. Ellie Carpenter, a blonde Caucasian woman with blue wrap as a headband, is pointing out of shot and shouting. On the right, Katrina Gorry yelling as well and to the left, the back of Alana Kennedy's jersey and Steph Catley, also open mouthed...

May The Fourth Be With You
A man with a white beard in a brown Jedi cloak and holding out a green lightsaber standing in the away bay at Coopers Stadium. There are 7 rows of 6 seats exposed, to the right a black covering separates this bay from the rest of the stand. There are banners reading "In Jeff We Trust" and "My Neck, My Back, My Alex Chidiac", a progress Pride flag and two other obscured across the sear. It's half time. Everyone else is at the bar...

My bag got flagged at Melbourne Airport

Security woman: "There's a sort of cylinder thing"
Me: "Lightsaber..."
SW: "Oh that's fine."
Me: "Happy to get it out to show you."
SW: "No, all fine. Watch out for those guys, jedi." *points at 4 stormtroopers across the way*

So I rummaged in my bag and...
