"We are not denying aid to Gaza! But we WILL FUCKING MESS UP ANYONE TRYING TO GET AID TO GAZA."

Sounds sustainable!

They're calling it the most fucked up bit of obvious corruption yet.

I like my fans like I like my football hooligans.

Something strange is happening in the markets just before President Trump posts on Truth Social. Our latest article (with @phzerosounds.bsky.social and Ella Chorazy) tells a visual story via a large-scale empirical analysis. stories.theconversation.com/the-market-m...

Very happy to have this piece out in @aunz.theconversation.com today, alongside my good colleagues @timothyjgraham.bsky.social and Ella Chorazy, looking at weird stuff happening in the oil markets before Trump posts to Truth Social. stories.theconversation.com/the-market-m...

I can't believe there is a market for this shit. I'd rather cut my arm off with a cheese grater.

It won't if you still read The Times.

You couldn't think of a more universal measure, guys?

Excellent.

It's insane to me that this guy has a real shot at being the next Mayor of LA.

Happy to have another piece out in @crikey.com.au today, about the decline of The Daily Wire. www.crikey.com.au/2026/05/14/s...

LOL, this is fucking insane: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lz1V...

I look forward to Republicans across the country being made to answer for this.

His ghostwriter literally wrote that book.

Whoever put this on a T-shirt absolutely*gets* Australian culture in the 90s.

C'mon!

An NBA trailblazer, as opposed to a Trail Blazer.

Absolutely incredible stuff.

Refreshing my memory of this banger:

LOL. Yeah, maybe tinkering around the edges will work this time!!

The "U.S. Senator in their 70s retiring to spend at least a few minutes with family before dying" challenge.

"under-babied". Who the fuck decides on that metric??

OMG!! YES, because most people are vaccinated against those things!! Not because they're not deadly. What a fucking dipshit RFK Jr is.

"I feel like you're just in Brisbane for the zipline."

The aim of the war is no longer regime change. The aim of the war is now to convince people this wasn't a mistake in the first place.

Fuck Alan Dershowitz. What a scumbag.

I'm glad he at least lived long enough to see Zohran Mamdani become Mayor.

It just says:

"And it was another great day of saving my friend from eviiiiiiiction"

But, on the bright side, the US government is now running super-efficiently.

This was an absolute cracking review.

The VP's condition has now been downgraded to "being J.D. Vance".

Still feel like "Musk and his crew of incels destroyed a bunch of stuff they didn't understand and thereby hastened the deaths of millions of children" did not get the public attention it warranted.

It's weird that my dad managed to get into that room, and somehow fall asleep in front of a microphone.

We've gone from "forever wars" to "forever temporary extensions of deadlines".

I just wish Zohran could be her running mate for 2028.

Every single day we are presented with evidence of actions that would make Nixon blush. Any democrat who doesn't make exposing (and prosecuting) corruption and abuse of power by this administration THE central message of their campaign doesn't deserve to win.

This is SO fucking accurate.

The biggest issue with this is that almost everyone who supports Trump thinks that they *are* "the resistance". They think they're the little guy, fighting the tyranny of pronouns and socialised health care.

Anyone who ever thought that the Qatari 747 wouldn't just be Trump's personal plane after he leaves office is a fucking idiot.

To be fair this is a photograph of my actual doctor.

To be fair, Popes have notoriously been weak on crime.

Peak masculinity.

It's Kier Starmer. Saved you from the click bait.

General AI is just around the corner, on the other side of the next investment round!!

A sitting Vice President actively campaigning for a dictator who currently oversees one of the crappiest economies in Europe. This is Trumpism in a nutshell.
