Oh well. #Khawaja #TheAshes

I hope Khawaja is there to score the winning run(s) today. #TheAshes

Had anything like this happened before in Australia? A Royal Commissioner appointed through negotiation with bad-faith actors, details leaked out via extremist activists journalists?

Need better Wifi in your home or small business? I have two sets of Netgear ORBI (RBR50) pairs (base + satellite) that I'm selling as we replaced them. Work totally fine (bought two sets to use the second satellite, so one base unused at all). Interested? HMU/DM me. Wanting $200 for both + shipping

Wednesday VOZ Ratings | BIG BASH CRICKET cleans up following a massive ASHES day 4 We're at the tail end of the cricket, and the tennis is looming...

Let me get this straight - England have wasted two of their three DRS challenges IN THE FIRST OVER?! #TheAshes

Australia requires 160 from their second innings to win (or, as we know now, one session of supreme play from Travis Head). #TheAshes

This is why we desperately need new Jewish institutions, and orgs like @jewishcouncilau.bsky.social are so important. The Bondi atrocity was committed by Indian men inspired by ISIS, a group who are emphatically not allies of Palestine. The parties here want to obscure this to their own ends.

FOR EIGHT YEARS. He was living in two families while lecturing others on grace, purity, and fidelity.

Despite everything we’ve seen over the past two years, this is probably the most shameful episode in Australian media history/ political collusion. The lead story on the SMH is Albanese’s political opponent, who lost his seat, trying to force the government to back his own pick for a RC. Madness.

"Josh Frydenberg said he opposed Bell’s appointment, without specifying reasons." What a grub.

I really do not want to see that Minnesota shooting video. How horrible for that person and their family. ICE is abhorrent.

Just think: you could be where you are right now, or you could be here with me having a coffee and a deep (or light) conversation about life (or anything, really). Make better choices.

Hot mat Pilates this morning was hot. #Gymfluencer

Last I checked, Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 of the US Constitution still exists. No one can spend money in the US Treasury without congressional authorization. This clause is central to the separation of powers. A president with unilateral control over government funds is a dictator.

I am finding it difficult to wind down these holidays.

Unable to debate anti-hate laws because of an act of hate: that's perfect irony, that is.

"Pauline Hanson wrote to Albanese asking him to lift a seven-day suspension from the Senate she received in the final sitting week of last year after she wore a burqa into the chamber. Hanson said the ban would prevent her from debating the new hate speech laws once parliament is recalled." Good.

So @tobymorton.bsky.social is a national treasure and Hilton is fucking up royally with this nonsense. www.hiltonice.com cc: @kenwhite.bsky.social

Pressed on why she described far-right neo-Nazis as “far-left”, Sussan Ley says these are just “political concepts” and can be framed however you like. 🤔 I don’t think so, Sussan. Left neo-Nazis? #auspol

SEVEN and SOUTHERN CROSS AUSTEREO merger officially complete The Seven West Media and SCA merger is now complete, formally bringing together major television and audio assets under one company.

Farewell Seven West Media (SWM). The end of an era of diminishing returns.

I used to be a chef. Some kitchens would get so hot in summer cooks would pass out, mayo would split. but we all had to work because we were literally making just enough money each week to keep housed. Capitalism is a cruel system.

Watching Americans eat with a fork infuriates me. HOLD IT PROPERLY AND RESPECT THE PROCESS, YOU FOOLS.

ALSO it can’t operate until the criminal trial(s) are complete. I doubt that will be fast enough for those crying and cloying because of other motivations.

This Greenland takeover thing is really doing a job on the Epstein Files for Trump, isn’t it?

What a time we live in when NATO have to make a statement about supporting “national integrity & individual sovereignty”.

Can someone please explain to me why the media is so obsessed in reporting every little detail of the Brisbane AFL player and the breakdown of his marriage (apparently due to his infidelity)? Why are there a million stories every other day about it?!

Did RICKY GERVAIS steal a joke for his NETFLIX comedy special MORTALITY? | MEDIA McKNIGHT A punchline delivered by the comedian appears to be a copy of a joke by a close friend.

It is not believable because this is complete bullshit.

This review is absolutely unsparing, and portrays Dokoupil as potentially too dumb for the job handed to him by the dumbest person to ever run an American network newsroom. With thorough evidence.

An old question, but a goodie. Are you a "freshie" or a "saltie"? ($) www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...

Monday VOZ Ratings | A ripping BIG BASH CRICKET game captivates in primetime A repeat of TRAVEL GUIDES also performed well by holiday standards...

Most of the money raised goes to admin & fundraising. It would be cheaper to subsidiser breast care nurses directly. Also re research funding, see @mon4kooyong.bsky.social who is trying to get funding locked in. We need research, not pink washing australiainstitute.org.au/post/the-pin... #auspol

Oh wow. OH WOW. #TheyWillKillYou (Thanks to @danbarrett.au for the heads up on this.) youtu.be/AqNFJUihSHg...

For as much as I was OBSESSED by The X-Files as a teen, I have rarely rewatched much of it in the past 20+ years. The time feels right for a rewatch. There’s also a big chunk of episodes in seasons 7-9 that I never saw. My interest started to fade after the show moved to LA.

WHY CAN I NOT BUY WINE GUMS ANYWHERE?!

BLEEP BLORP BLOOP

Another price rise for KAYO SPORTS as Premium plan increases from February Premium Kayo subscribers are set to pay more again, with the service locking in a higher monthly price from February amid ongoing cost-of-living pressures.

Why are the domestic politics of a South American country any business of the USA? Oil. It’s oil, isn’t it? Oil.

Trump in a single gaggle on Air Force One just threatened: -- a second strike against Venezuela -- Cuba -- Mexico -- Colombia -- Iran -- Greenland (which in turn would be an attack on the EU and Denmark)

Klingon: Glory to your house. Gen X:... Klingon: Sorry, glory to your rental.

Still blows me away that while Maria is walking down the aisle to get married the nuns of holy order she used to be a part of sing a song about how shit she is. It’s like, “How do you solve a problem like Maria? We couldn’t work it out so fucking good luck to you, old mate Captain Fancypants…”

I’m still amazed that the sub judice aspect has been ignored in the rolling media campaign for a Bondi royal commission. In case you’ve not read about it (and why would you) I’ve written about it here: open.substack.com/pub/nickfeik...
