The way these ‘alpha debate lords’ who target women who aren’t looking for a debate always get absolutely shit on the moment they accidentally get a woman who is ready to debate them is always so funny
Now that we're back on here, we want to express our support for the Palestinian people, and their right to self-determination, safety and happiness.
An end to this genocide.
An end to apartheid.
Free Palestine.
If Dylan Mulvaney was actually to blame for the entire beer industry collapsing due to just one social media post like this article suggests, that would make her by far the most influential person to have ever existed and is honestly such a slay
Watching the rich out-of-touch panel on the Project realise in real time that not everyone is rich is so bizarre
Especially the part where Pingers has to explain that being in a house is safer than sleeping on the street
How do they host the news with no connection to reality?
Context for Americans who are confused when Aussies say ‘Girt by Sea’ is how we are good at swimming; Girt is a swimming coach who lives near the beach
Great woman, her swim school is one of the best parts of growing up in Aus
For my American followers, one of the people who claims to be ‘sickened’ by the Tenacious D joke once put a child on a lie detector live and as a ‘prank’ made her disclose her sexual abuse to thousands of radio listeners so he could joke about it without her knowing or approving
Its crazy that after decades of balancing the two brands of Jack Black and Tenacious D Jack Black, it was Aussie conservatives pretending to be offended for clicks that led to that balance falling apart
thank god the geniuses in charge of the abc at the moment basically just gave away the international distribution rights
i mean just imagine how stressful it would be as a struggling underfunded network to have to count all that money
Can someone who is good at photoshop give me some advice, i was trying to resize an image of Albo and photoshop automatically created an image that was not consistent with the original. How do i fix this?
Before and after below:
Statement from Channel 9: "As is common practice, the image was resized to fit our specs. During that process, the automation by Photoshop created an image [of George Purcell] that was not consistent with the original." (via ABC) |

The ABC wants it known that over 900 complaints by the public about Patricia Karvelas being racist on Q+A are a waste of time that dont need to be investigated, but if a pro-Israel lobby group says to fire someone for sharing a human rights watch post, they will do it immediately
its wild that aussie media execs are so confused as to why people dont want to listen to this show while they drive their kids to school in the morning

Dont worry, James Sommerton will put out a statement clarifying everything just as soon as another queer creator does one that he can steal
You’d think Australia’s ambassador boycotting the Nagasaki Memorial because Israel wasn’t invited would make the news in Australia, like it did in Israel, Japan and America 🤷♂️
Seems like a pretty important story that Australian media is just straight up not covering at all
Tim Minchin being so ‘boohoo cancel culture bad’ that he is now saying he regrets calling out George Pell might be the fall off of the decade
What the actual fuck
Timely reminder that the ‘banning teens from social media’ campaign isn’t run by activists and experts, it’s being led by Murdoch media as a part of a tantrum about the media bargaining deals falling through
The police:
“We knew about hundreds of abusers but waited to arrest them all at once so we can sound good in headlines”
The media:
“Wow look at how good and efficient they are at protecting people”
NSW Police have staged a four-day crackdown on domestic violence, arresting a total of 554 offenders.
More than 1,000 charges were issued in the blitz, with 226 of the offenders arrested by police facing serious domestic violence offences.
Operation Amarok VI took place last
Its crazy that after decades of balancing the two brands of Jack Black and Tenacious D Jack Black, it was Aussie conservatives pretending to be offended for clicks that led to that balance falling apart
To not be considered in housing stress at $700 a week, you would need to be earning over $100k a year, which would put you in the top 20% of earners in the country
We really need to ban rich people from giving analysis on the economy and what is an acceptable amount to pay
“He should be allowed to call people slurs because his wife has cancer” is truly the sort defence that only an old straight white man could come up with
OPINION: The over-reaction to Jeremy Finlayson’s sledge is yet another episode of virtue signalling from the AFL, criticising a young man whose family is in the middle of a cancer battle.
Read Steve Price's column:
The worst part about Americans trying to say that Australian gun control laws are a failure is that it forces us to give credit to John Howard.
Disgusting.
To the Americans trying to make yesterday’s tragedy in Sydney into an argument against gun control:
As a survivor of a different random stabbing, I probably wouldn’t be alive to tweet this if our country had your terrible gun laws.
Sit your asses down and shut the hell up.
The family of Olympic cyclist and mother-of-two Melissa Hoskins has released a statement, after her tragic death on Saturday.
Rohan Dennis, her husband since 2018 is charged with causing death by dangerous driving.

News Corp boss last week:
"Our outlets would never bully anyone or spread division. That is what social media does and it is harmful to civil society."

Samantha Maiden writing a piece about how disgusting it is to run leaked text messages in a bid to try discredit Brittany Higgins, when only yesterday she literally wrote a piece using those same leaked messages with the same gross framing is top tier hypocrisy
Auskick and community football could be collateral damage in the escalating efforts to ban gambling ads on social and digital media, with the AFL poised to lose more than $100 million a year in revenue.

Me after reading it was with a Kyle and Jackie-O producer who was sexually harassing him at a bar:
“Give him Australian of the year”
A Current Affair posting images of a DV safe house and doxxing one of the victims living there is so obviously fucked up that it’s almost hard to fathom
That show is like actually evil
Interestingly this article that exists to anger uncles on Facebook never mentions that this ‘young Aussie’ works for Sky News, seems like an important detail to miss when talking about conservative outrage
It's crazy that Peter van Onselen is a university lecturer, imagine getting tens of thousands of dollars in HECS debt only to be taught journalism from a dude at The Daily Mail
Are they honestly trying to convince me that JD Vance didn't have sex with a single couch? Look at his face! That's the face of a couch fucking man and you can't convince me otherwise.
I wanted to give you an update about the Murray-Darling Basin Plan.
Over the last year it has become clear that major elements of the Murray-Darling Basin Plan were either left to drift or actively sabotaged by the Liberals and Nationals.
Seen here: the Liberal Party showing more support for a guy suffering a stern talking to over a constitutional crisis than they have any woman who has been the victim of sexual violence
It’s crazy that the Rex ceo changed his contract just last week in a way that means he now gets a full pay out of his yearly salary if his employment ended, like say if the company shut down suddenly
I mean what a crazy coincidence

Numerous rally attendees have approached to ask the govenment to do more on domestic violence, coercive control, online issues
🚨Personal announcement 🚨
I am now an editor at The Chaser and am excited about some of the changes we will introduce next year to widen our content.
🚨Also announcement🚨
This means I am one of the only editors at an Aussie outlet who hasn’t been on a pro-Israel holiday.
The anti-corruption committee's first big call being so sus that it leads to the anti-corruption committee getting investigated for potential corruption is a story that basically encapsulates the state of politics these days
