On days like today, I’m glad I’m diversified across stocks, gold and bitcoin because it allows me to lose money in three totally different ways.

Seeing Australians write and say the word CANDY is a jarring experience. Have you no self respect? I'm here 20 fucking years and I still call them SWEETS. Grow a spine and call them LOLLIES like your parents did you culturally inebriated flogs

It's a sign of the times that callousness is now dressed up as intellectualism. That empathy is framed as being as morally problematic as prejudice. That bigotry and hatred is just honesty. That solidarity is treason.

White House backed Cosplay Call of Duty but the "call" is from a paedophile and the "duty" is to pull automatic weapons on the Weak for $26 per hour before tax #ICE

There are many good science fiction novels. Not a single one that I have read delivers a happy vision of the future in which aged right-wing billionaires control the media.

Don't know why this site gets so much hate. This thread is 👨‍🍳💋🤌

Nobody has stopped him doing any illegal shit so far so this will keep happening and escalating. HE'S DEMOLISHING THE WHITE HOUSE FOLKS

You know how billionaires end up with severe cognitive deficits as a result of becoming surrounded by yes men who constantly tell them their every idea is genius? What if we made a bot that just does that to everyone. I think that would be a good idea.

I log off bluesky for a few hours and come back and now I'm trying to decipher all the diarrhoea references 🙃

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”? anyway that’s why these events are important

There are way more good and decent Americans than the shit ones that seem to dominate the attention. Keep going folks, the world is watching 👀 👍 #NoKings 🇮🇪🇦🇺

What did Musk get for this and why? Is it the Nazi kick?

Probably only as long as free and fair elections are held and theres a chance of clawing back something... which we will find out soon is not a thing

If they do what they say they will (strong track record) the odds of organised insurgency would rise (the thing the US is impeccable at fomenting overseas). Further justification for consolidation of power. They NEED "terrorists".

Having re-listened to this masterpiece today I think we need a documentary studying Arthur's Day. More harmful to the Guinness reputation than the IRA 🤣

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Betteridge's Law

Lots of Non-Irish people telling me they love House of Guinness on Netflix. I can't bring myself to watch it because I know it's Brit's-Ireland-Peaky-Prism nonsense. Well worth revisiting the definitive Guinness take by @blindboyboatclub.bsky.social instead open.spotify.com/episode/6Srz...

Love to see it. The Notorious MIA

🇺🇸 circling the drain 🇺🇸

Sometimes, I watch Rugby League to remind myself how much I despise it

Is the USA's best chance of surviving as we know it a military coup? Those sworn to protect the constitution right? It sure as shit ain't going to be the Democrats

Gitto saying out loud what everyone is thinking #AusPol

Throw the children onto the debt bonfire rather than accept a reduction in the paper value of the roof over your own head #AusPol #Propadee

Pete Davidson should be asked how his dead dad is until the end of time

Americans, fuck yeah, I suppose

Back to piracy folks! Yeaarrgh me internet hearties etc etc and so forth ☠️ 🏴‍☠️ 🦜

Being ruled by the CCP starting to look better and better

Your average middle-class American male in 2025 👇 #RyderCup

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

Had to recently listen to a Collingwood supporter tell me that Charlie Cameron was only being picked because he's indigenous (old mate tells me he's not racist, just equal opportunity and Cameron is shit) #AFLGF

Bow to the president while your team loses bigly is a pertinent metaphor for these USA times 🇺🇸

Hahahahahahaha when does this end

As America's most pro-business leader in a generation, I will choose one company each week and accuse them of witchcraft

Time to invest in other friendships, Australia

I’ve been reporting on influencers for more than seven years now and today I had an academic decline to do an interview about them for the first time out of fear of government retaliation.

a good arbiter of how close we are to bad hybrid regime shit is if the political comedy shows start getting pulled for whatever reason

We are at the stage of the energy transition where individual households are subsidising energy retailers @evcurvefuturist.com @profraywills.futuresmart.com.au

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

MAGAts = taliban groypers = ISIS did I get that right?

Understanding the term groyper is a simple test to see how chronically online you are

Fox News is just forging ahead tonight as though a card-carrying Democrat gunned down Charlie Kirk. The narrative is impervious to facts.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

This explains it better than I can

Lemme speak with directness and a sense of urgency about our most important economic threats, and what history teaches us about moments like this.

Can't say you don't comply if you're not invited to The Signal Chat 🔥👊🇺🇸

ScoMo legacy exhibit F At least Australia managed to regain control of the joint from this lunatic before irreparable damage could be wrought

I was in school in the 90s in Ireland when we would say a prayer before EVERY CLASS. I cant remember whether it was a Hail Mary or an Our Father. Most of us turned out atheist so I wouldn't quite freak out at this regressive BS

Morning Bluesky. Tesla had its seventh straight monthly decline in European sales in July, dropping 40% to 8,837. Chinese rival BYD surged past Tesla with 225% sales increase, to 13,503.
