"That dawg don't hunt. I bet none of these durn young turks has even jizzed on a single god damn subordinate."

Urban dictionary calls this move the Leyland P76. Five in the boot.

I shudder to say it but a good branding agency would have told them that CSA will *absolutely* be pronounced “scissor” by detractors.

Oh for fuck’s sake.

Last night a friend sent me a text out of the blue with this pic and said “this was 20 years ago today” and I like to think I haven’t changed one bit.

Just pick any Teenage Fanclub record at random and play it stem to stern. It’s good for what ails ya.

It's interesting to speculate on what was going through the mind of the person who cut down the last tree on Easter Island, especially when you see the temperatures in Europe this week.

Angus Taylor has a liminal face.

A moratorium on treating the rise or fall of housing prices as though it were actual news.

The Right is eternally mad about the Left bias in the Humanities, which is in some small sense understandable as reality rather skews that way. But you never ever hear them talk about defunding economics departments, which is odd.

Splatfishing

Ablo should change the Commonwealth legislation banning dogs from pubs and allow it to be the venue-owner’s decision. Come on, DJ Ablo. Do it. www.theage.com.au/national/vic...

The captain on the Trident sub tunes into the BBC. Silence. The day uas come. With heavy heart he opens the safe and begins to read. Sure! Let's review the context. ✅ Nuclear war - a dangerous challenge! ✅ BBC not broadcasting. Implies London is destroyed, so good to have a contingency ...

Angus Taylor has that dopey well-intentioned-idiot look about him that screams for Nathan Fillion to be cast in his biopic.

British nuclear subs have a thing called the Letter Of Last Resort, which is a letter from the PM to the sub captain instructing them what to do should the UK be destroyed in nuclear war. It’s fun to think that there could be a submarine out there with a letter from 2 PMs ago.

They should let the Downing St Cat eat the next one.

Enjoyed this immensely when it came out but somehow only Clooney’s and Hugh Laurie’s involvements stuck with me. Had no idea Michôd and Davies wrote it, but it makes total sense.

Last year a friend was quite unwell and after their procedure they weren't allowed to leave hospital until they had passed gas. Everyone was calling them about it so I set up a website called has<$name>fartedyet dot com to keep everyone up to date with a single source of truth. /

Talent: "Wait, my bank lives there?" Talent 2: "You're saying that's where my porn is stored?" Talent 3: "What about my precious memes?" Announcer: "Yes, <chuckles> even the cat memes. Hyperscale Data Centres are just like the bank in 'It's A Wonderful Life' but they stream 'Sisu'."

Embedding capacitive keypads that only light up on touch into door handles at hotels is violence. I quite literally have to get down onto my knees to punch in a code. Fury-inducing.

oh no not karl stefanovic he wore the same suit for a year he can't be bad

Nobody played anxiety like Jack Lemmon. When he talked you could hear cold sweat running down his vocal cords.

very sad about Keir Starmer’s prime ministership. growing up in suburban Melbourne in the 80s, his music taught me that it was ok to be weird

British Prime Ministers should make their resignation speeches from the seat of a ceremonial golden dunk tank. When the Serjeant At Arms hits the target with a cricket ball they lobbed with the Mace, the pm drowns and the speech is over.

Government subsidies for fast station wagons. You’re hearing it more and more.

I’m absolutely convinced that we simply don’t age the way we used to. It’s cheating to use him as an example but this is Wilford Brimley in “The China Syndrome”. He was 45.

Starmer being able to lay out his own departure timetable (potentially over months!) is silly. You don't give a PM a farewell tour, you do the numbers over the weekend, roll him at 10am, and tell the voters he's gone to live on a nice farm in the country. You amateurs. You absolute toddlers.

Going on a 70s disaster movie jag and being chaotic about it by starting with sequels. Beyond The Poseidon Adventure features Telly Savalas trying to heist the *plutonium* that for some reason is in the floating upside down hulk of the Poseidon. Sally Field attempts sauciness. Must Watch.

Notice that Neil Mitchell didn’t mention class at all? It’s telling.

At what point do you start looking for tse tse flies?

Gee I wonder what would happen if Neil Mitchell had a seat at the table. I guess we will never know.

Gotta say, my predeliction for wearing all orange everything all of the time is starting to send a message around here that I’m not sure I’m happy with. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06...

The soundtrack to the Steve Coogan vehicle “Legends” on Netflix is premium Gen X catnip. This is both complimentary and derogatory.

Oh fuck no Wikipedia.

Those new electronic pervert glasses are going to ruin it for those of us who wear og acoustic pervert glasses :(

Might panic buy a Mac Mini.

Gonna start a Youtube channel like this but it's just people trying to reverse caravans and jack knifing and all you can hear is their spouse yelling at me for laughing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fG2...

Just quietly, how did the Ghost plan to consummate his relationship with Mrs Muir?

Draw a totenkopf on this and you got a hell of a Platner costume.

We could solve the housing crisis in a day if we just installed shitters, showers, and kitchens in every empty shopfront on Chapel Street.

I installed the developer beta of iOS and it borked the Kagi plugin for Safari. As a result I’m getting Google results for search, and I have a question — how the fuck are people living like this?

In good news for economic complexity, Melbourne has moved from a simple cafe-based economy to a more complex cafe and 24 hour gym based economy.

I just realised who Melania Trump sounds like and it’s Triumph The insult Comic Dog doing a Melania Trump impression.

You ever think about how the antagonists in Mars Attacks! are all dude-coded apart from one very sexualised femme and that this makes them basically Smurfs?
