My latest article in @theshot.net.au on the dark days of McCarthyism coming to Australia to eclipse our cultural landscape under the guise of eradicating communism - whoops sorry - antisemitism The Adelaide Festival, the arts and the dark arts #allfeedbackwelcome 🙏🏽 theshot.net.au/uncategorize...

Perhaps the most disgraceful of all the “national security” laws that have been passed since Sept 11 2001. Albanese would have been a good, compliant minister in the Howard govt. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

Dr. Gladys West, the pioneering mathematician whose work laid the foundation for modern GPS technology, has died. She was 95.

NBA game in London. Someone screams “Leave Greenland alone!” during US national anthem. The crowd reacts in support.

oh it's going to be a Recession recession

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

Any new law MUST be as appropriate to the entire nation and its cultural groups and religious not just one goddamn religion, like Marles just pointed out on ABC 24. #AusPol

Trump is trying to sell Palestinian sovereignty for $1 billion per seat while Palestinians are still being bombed and starved under the so-called “ceasefire.” This isn’t diplomacy, it’s profiteering off genocide. Australia better not touch this with a 10-foot pole.

I get the nostalgia for a time before this one, but guys - 2016 was the start of the mask off terribleness. The vibes were not all they are being made out to be.

threads has pretty comfortably overtaken X in daily active users on mobile

Seventy-two per cent of Australians have little or no confidence in Trump “to do the right thing” As few as 8% of Australians are convinced Australia “shares values” with modern America, according to a YouGov poll for the Australia Institute in November. #News #Auspol #USpol #USA

Why is it that religious bodies receive exemptions from criminal laws in Australia? If it's a crime, it's a fucking crime. Fix this up, @australianlabor.bsky.social @albomp.bsky.social. NO MORE EXEMPTIONS. REPEAL EXISTING EXEMPTIONS. #auspol

"The cost of renting [in Brisbane] has increased by around 49 per cent over the past five years.” Landlords are 5 minutes away from mooring cruiseship hulks in Brisbane River and charging $500/week for a bunk www.abc.net.au/news/2026-01...

None of these people should be able to work in our industry again

and I feel like we were steadily heading in that direction for a half century (as i type on a shard of glass) and then this dude showed up, and a few other dudes like him, and now we’re in the mirror universe where people are trying to bring back slaves.

A whole bunch of artists and cultural workers have lost work because of the implosion of Adelaide Writers week — writers, producers, stage crew, front of house. None of this was their fault. Something for the Labor premier to think about

Well it was nice knowing you all.

Always worth remembering that Rupert Murdoch will die having been the most malignant force in the world of the past 80 years. One of the few of whom you can say the world would be better had he never been born.

MORE OF THIS AUSTRALIA!! USA/Israel out of our country.

How many citizens were killed by police in each country between 2010-2019: Canada: 305 France: 233 Germany: 100 Australia: 53 United Kingdom: 22 United States: 15,008

The attempt to now discredit this guy because he didn’t do what Sky News wanted is (in a long list) one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in Australian media. What an absolute disgrace.

Israel should be banned from every international forum. That Israeli President Isaac Herzog is coming to Australia is a disgrace.

A Royal Commission into why no govt in Australia will ever sanction Israel for openly committing international crimes....

95% of Australian political media coverage is a demand for a dog and pony show. Something happened, we expect you to respond this way, why aren't you responding the way we expect, oh my god, you are now under pressure to respond the way we expect!

This is metal

“The guy I know from the Super Pedophile told me I can be forever president.”

Have a quiet think. Let it be a guiding lesson for you Whatever regretful comments you may have made in your life, whatever actions you wish you could take back, let your benchmark for the lowest of the low be using the deaths of 15 people for the relaunch of your political career

The increasing capitalisation of third spaces, the social media ban, disconnect from public sentiment around current affairs in other places atm, and boredom. So much boredom

I've never been more convinced Australia has the worst mainstream journalists in the world. Simple, thick, racist, ahistorical, bootlicking dipshits that lie and screech more than they think and feel. This weaponisation of a tragedy against anti-genocide voices is grotesque.

The idea that changing a definition to include criticism of Israel as being anti-Semitic and cracking down even further on anti-genocide protests would have in any way made anyone safer is madness. That the Coalition have so comprehensively jumped to blame here is insanity. Who is this speaking to?

John Howard pushed for the invasion of Iraq, which was one of the dominoes which created the conditions for ISIS and caused untold human misery we are still dealing with today. He refused to acknowledge racism was a main driver of the Cronulla riots.

something quite relevant to this that I completely forgot I wrote a few months ago" "Australia’s lead advisor on fighting antisemitism has singled out X for successfully using artificial intelligence to “root out hate” More: www.crikey.com.au/2025/07/11/a...

I know there's no bottom level to Australia's media but also seeing Pauline Hanson elevated to Expert Commentator status is fucking shocking considering SHE WAS RECORDED CLAIMING AUSTRALIA'S WORST MASS SHOOTING WAS A FALSE FLAG OPERATION Immediately memory-holed. Like it never happened.

A lot of Americans are weighing in on the tragedy at Bondi Beach in Australia & saying MORE guns is the answer. They should sit this one out. The fact that the shooters didn’t have automatic weapons saved lives. America has had more than 350 mass shootings this year. More guns is never the answer

BREAKING: Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese proposed tougher national gun laws after a mass shooting on Sydney's Bondi Beach left at least 15 people dead.

Drawing for the Bondi Beach hero who risked his life to disarm one of antisemitic terrorist shooters in Australia. According to 7NEWS Australia, the hero has been identified as Ahmad Al Ahmed, 43 year old father of 2 and Sydney resident.

Australian here 👋 Stop saying the tragedy in Sydney demonstrates that strict gun laws don’t work. There were ZERO mass shootings in Australia in the two decades after strict gun laws were passed in 1996. We have so much we need to do, but strict gun laws remain a critical part of the solution.

Bless the Muslim man who disarmed a terrorist shooter in Australia!

I see war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu lying on global TV. He says that the person who stopped a Bondi Beach shooter, Ahmed al Ahmed, was a Jewish man. The hero is in fact, a 43-year-old muslim fruit shop owner from Sydney - and this has been multiple source confirmed.
